Cyclic II was conceived for the exhibition Cyclicspace, a showcase featuring 10 sculptures revolving around the same theme.
Mariko Mori explores the Möbius strip forms to depict the theory of ekpyrotic universe, which postulates a cyclical form of existence, involving deaths and rebirths in an endless, eternal cycle.
Cyclic II is an exploration of the interconnectedness of all things, a fundamental concept in Zen Buddhism that Mariko draws upon both conceptually and figuratively in her works.
