A glass container, like a goblet, is filled with blood-like liquid, at its bottom. A clean rib bone as a stem of flower is put inside the glass, touching the blood and supporting a cash-made flower. The petals of this flower are made of Chinese currency. Each banknote has value of 10 Yuan, which was issued in the year of 1980. (Yifan Shang ‘25)
