This piece draws inspiration from the Rubik's Cube game, intertwining the imagery of scholar rocks. Each cubelet represents a fragment from different rocks, constantly shifting and recombining to form the enigmatic "Rubik's Rock Cube." Just like Bai Juyi wrote in his 'Records of Taihu Stones': "A hundred feet in one punch, a thousand miles in an instant, attained effortlessly." The grandeur and minuteness, eternity and momentariness echoes each other, condensing this moment while also disperseing across the universe.
