The deep valleys and sheer cliffs of the Yoro Valley were formed over hundreds of thousands of years as the earth lifted layers of rock that had accumulated over 3 million years. The flow of water carved out the strata, exposing the memories of the earth.*

People are usually unable to perceive the existence of periods of time far longer than their own lives, and that that time is continuous with the now. However, when confronting the exposed cliffs of the strata, people realize that an endlessly long accumulated time is inherent within its overwhelming shape and texture.

We named this giant existence carved by eternal time, Deep-time Sculpted Existence.

Within this giant existence, flowers repeat the cycle of life and death, the time of continuous life flows, and it continues to transform due to the existence of people living in the present.

Entering the depths of the valley, wandering, and becoming one with this overwhelming existence, it becomes apparent that the endlessly long accumulated time is continuous with this very moment.

And when walking through the overlap of these two times, people physically realize that their own existence is part of a boundless continuity of a long, long time.

* In Yoro Valley, there is a geomagnetic reversal stratum that retains the clearest traces in the world of the reversal of the earth's magnetic field (North and South poles). Due to the historical value of this stratum, the geological age from approximately 774,000 to 129,000 years ago has been named, Chibanian (Chiba Age), the first geological age to be named after a place in Japan.
