3. “The tree is decorated with small bells hanging vertically from the branches. And the people who walk among them take an active part in this installation, just like the wind.”

7. “Passers-by approached the tree in some kind of trance state, as if our installation had become magical and attracted people like a magnet. The sight and sound of 12,000 bells in one place is truly something magical, surreal and even somewhat sacred.”
