The latest eco-minded project from the Japanese artist Mariko Mori and her Faou Foundation is a permanent work titled Ring: One with Nature—a luminous 6m-high ring to be installed at the peak of a Brazilian waterfall. The work, due to be unveiled on 3 August, just three days ahead of the start of the Rio 2016 Olympic and Paralympic Games, “celebrates the unity between every being and nature, and is emblematic of the unity of all nations and ethnicities,” Mori says.
