In "Suspended Spring," the swirling augmented reality cherry blossoms, in Japanese culture a sign of the beauty and the impermanence of life, follow you around wherever you go, inside or outside, as the traditional song "Sakura" is slowed and stretched beyond recognition. A memento mori for life in the time of Coronavirus, 2020.
