A sewerage treatment plant is a facility that changes dirty water into clean water and sludge. The device you see here was made based on this thinking, and has the aim of disassembling symbols one by one and reducing them to zero. We would be happy if it would function as a path of escape out of our present state of drowning in relentlessly onrushing meaning.

[Purpose]
1, To make daily life convenient
2, To protect the mental environment.
3, Storing superficialities underground, thereby allowing us to forget them at just the right amount and prevent their renewal.
