Interactive installation built on the construction of revolving doors encountered in supermarkets. The name Brahmaputra refers to the river flowing through China, India and Bangladesh. In the artist’s intention, the gate symbolizes transition from life to death while the revolving motion and turning round evokes associations with a vicious circle. The orange colour of the frames refers to the colour of gowns worn by Buddhist monks.
