A group of Taiwanese artists have created the “artificial nature” of a waterfall from off-the-shelf products. In this contemporary era, man-made nature such as the controlled lighting to grow plants, programmed gardens, and electric fireplaces is considered to be the civilized ecosystem. This artwork raises a question of the boundary between nature and artificiality. Can the created nature expand and enrich our existing concept of nature?
