The reenactment involves the creation of a microcosm of nature, adapting natural and recycled materials and utilizing 1,800 Sq. ft of open space in the form of a walkout from the historically preserved Little Bloomsbury main structure of the same square footage. As is typical of Chinese arts and outlook, the project is aimed at reenacting a world of “antechambers after antechambers” with ensembles of a bridge, pavilion, chess table, garden furniture, lanterns, calligraphy, sculptures, rock formations, and other land art.
