Japanese artist Takahiro Iwasaki created this amazingly detailed scale model of the Byodo-In Temple that appears to be floating in space above its own reflection.
The Byodo-In Temple is a beautiful 10th century structure near Kyoto. Iwasaki's replica, entitled Reflection Model (Perfect Bliss), was built between 2010 and 2012 using Japanese cypress, the same material used for the original building in 1053. It is currently on exhibit as part of the 7th Asia Pacific Triennial of Contemporary Art in Queensland, Australia.
