The installation is derived from one of the basic cultivation methods, so-called permanent planting, which means planting crops without further transplanting. By reflecting on its notion, electrostatic energy is employed to explore the relationship between soil and vegetal behaviors. Thin white papers move up and down according to the static electricity controlled by a cyclical-sounding system. This phenomenon is susceptible to their surrounding environment, particularly humidity, similarly to vegetal beings.
