During her residency in Switzerland, artist Tao Hai Yue frequently pondered how people should reconsider their perception of Nature. In this process, she spent several weeks collecting stones near Nairs and arranged them into a table of food-like stones, drawing inspiration from the popular 1990s Chinese stone collection culture of 'stone banquets'. Within this cultural concept, the boundary between art and nature blurs, emphasizing the importance of imagination and poetry.
