Yuken Teruya: "Corner Forest", Toilet paper rolls work series

"Toilet rolls sprouting and spreading branches are installed to a wall to create a forest. There is a moment when the cut-out branches and leaves start holding themselves up with their own strength. It is as if I am helping the paper awakens its ability to come to life." Y.T.
