The material clay is a condensed version of the message of each climate. The clay is molded according to the properties of the material. The fallout from the pine and miscellaneous trees that fueled it has turned it into a ball of drippings. Some pieces are broken and shattered, while others, barely remaining, reveal unexpected forms. Is there really something beyond people's power to transcend the time axis?
