The installation is four meters high, with metal mesh curtains hanging in circular paths from a structural frame. It evokes traditional Chinese landscape paintings and the shape of mountains and clouds and is a metaphor for the urban Xanadu. It follows the archetype of a maze, a circular labyrinth with a diameter of five meters where people will miss or meet depending on the path they choose. Different people of different age and height will have different possibilities of interaction and contact in it, encouraging people to explore the ups and downs of the folds of the form. The maze is a microcosm of the city, where people meet or separate.
