The bridge between human and plant.
The communication concept is similar to that of empathy. As the leaf cushion is connected to human muscle system, trace movement of the leaf can be detected and transferred to human muscle. The moment the mimosa is stimulated, human can feel the tactile and pain from the plant, and the arm will respond like the mimosa.We hope to raise awareness of the sentience of plant by making human see from a plant’s perspective and feel what it feels.
