The shadow of the imperial seal hanging over the paddy field

Wood, wooden case, pulley block, rope and scarecrow

625 x 400 x 400 cm

2009

The false saying a country will be prosperous forever if the emperor receive instructions from God leads the imperial seal to become a crazy stone. In fact, only historical plants can embody the connotation of this sentence. In this installation, the heavy imperial seal hanging over the paddy field may fall anytime, which is lifted by the scarecrows by means of the pulley block.
