Piece Description on the platform |
In December 10, 1999, the Philippine island of Luzon dealt with a massive overnight blackout. Unbeknownst to residents, an estimated 50
truck-loads of jellyfish swam into one of the major powerplants and found themselves trapped in its cooling system. This strange news left an
imprint in my mind, and I would never forget about it.

In the dystopian future, our hero finds his inner peace in a state of Zen. He's reminded of the jellyfishes that inspired him when
