The artist named GEC suggests that the intention is to reflect on the pervasive existence of technology in every day lifestyle in a playful yet imagined-provoking way.

The artist claims the artwork has already captivated a whole lot of consideration from passers-by, sparking discussions about the raising use of technology in our lives. Although the installation is temporary, it grew to become even much more so when folks started having some of the flowers dwelling. The artist sees its disappearance as a natural component of the general public artwork process, the place the set up gets to be a public artwork and is no longer solely the artists.
