An artwork shaped like an airplane. The tail section is fitted with an eyepiece; by looking through it, viewers can enjoy a world where reality and fantasy blend together, much like a kaleidoscope. Through the artwork, clouds appear to drift across the classroom, making the airplane, rocket, and local landscape seem like a fantasy. The artwork can be picked up and rotated in all directions, allowing viewers to appreciate it from every angle. The artwork is installed in a classroom at a junior high school that closed two years ago due to school consolidation. Since the school closed immediately after the graduation ceremony, remains of that time—such as writing on the blackboard—remain.
