Heavenly Realm Introduction

Outside the Nangang Exhibition Center stands the public art piece "Realm of Man and Heaven." Like the life-giving springs that nourish hollow souls, it inspires joyful and rhythmic steps. Two enormous hands, one pointing to the ground and the other to the sky, meet at their fingertips, representing the threshold between man and heaven, while the colorful rings symbolize infinity and endless extension. This interface between the realms can signal across billions of kilometers and decades of time, requiring a lifetime's effort yet yielding no tangible results. It can also connect the ethereal and the earthly seamlessly, allowing one to travel through time effortlessly, spanning centuries in the blink of an eye. Made of nine stacked rings of colorful kiln-fired glass, it separates the natural world from the civilized world. This interface, along with heights like "Between Thoughts" and "Infinite Self and Object," and its circular colors resonate with the rhythm of seasonal songs and the dance of life, providing the best conclusion to the entire concept. Some find instant enlightenment, while others linger in melancholy echoes; whatever the answer may be, only with a full understanding and coordination between civilization and nature can civilization itself extend into infinity.
