Useless

Step into the hall, and you will find two big tree trunks with roots lying on the floor and a countless number of tape measures attached to them hanging on the wall like a net. Dead and useless trees come together with tape measures, which are a product of civilization, to create a beautiful scene. Civilized tools used for providing quantitative measurements, such as tape measures and scales, come in contact with dead nature, transforming themselves into leaves and fruits to greet visitors. The useful have given up their usefulness, while the useless have become art.
