Well

This work takes the form of Fujian earthen buildings (tulou). These buildings only have one door, and several stories layered on a round foundation, like rings on a tree. This is a mode of tribal living; the larger ones can house a village, while the smaller ones can house a family. The well is often located in the centre of the structure’s courtyard.

The front part of the work is a model of an earthen building, while the back part is a tree branch extending from the well at the centre of the courtyard. Water flows along the branch and drips into the black wooden bucket at the other end, which people would often use to draw water from the well.
