_ 1 LANDSCAPE with four burials
Flower burial
Maybe it is boundless, on the angle you watch it. It changes follow the four seasons. Time to give it wholeness, here give it another meaning of wholeness.
Stone burial
It was part from here, it`s always belonged here, anonymous, be named, interpretations of various characters, an immutable state, itself on the creation of a wholeness.
Tree burial
It`s growing slowly, but gentlely, the annular growing tells time. It`s touched by the first sunlight, the air flow through. It contains unit and whoeness simultaneously.
Wall burial
It likes the weaver, its sister is garden besides it. What is walling in or walling out, following the ridge, containing every fragment, indicating the wholeness.
_ 2 HOUSES
House for the Dead

House for Mourners
To symbolize the equality we share in death to take the conduct of our daily lives with that communal consciousness.
