Beneath the infinite Milky Way, a centuries-old cherry tree blooms once more. Time flows endlessly above and below — the galaxy drifts across the sky as the tree endures through generations. “The Eternal Bloom” is a meditation on transience and endurance, where a single blossom mirrors the timeless rhythm of the cosmos.
