What is that box randomly placed in the middle of a field full of wild weeds? The modern scenery of life surrounding our daily life is already far removed from green forests. As if to embrace such a situation, the artist has placed plants inside the box and attached to it a photograph of the place that needed such refreshing energy to create a box of “Portable Landscape.” As if not sufficiently satisfied, he placed the box in real nature for a while, and took a picture as proof of a scene he might never see again. Can we ever restore green, or nature, to our lives?
