Located in Wulai District, New Taipei City, the Neidong National Forest Recreation Area is a low-elevation forest. The park is rich in animal and plant ecological resources. Among them, Xinxian Waterfall is a popular outdoor tourist attraction in northern Taiwan because of its spectacular view from a close distance.
Typhoon Soudelor in 2015 damaged many facilities in the Forest Recreation Area. The Forest Recreation Area then reopened in September 2018 after three years of restoration, replacement of old equipment, and improvement of the landscape. At that time, there was no distinctive entrance to the park. To create and emphasize the distinctive landscape of the Forest Recreation Area, the team integrated the local environment and created a landmark with aesthetics and consistency at its core. The artwork presents imagery of the Xinxian Waterfall and the diversity of the park's species, as well as showcasing the local Atayal culture. The ceramic installation, "Endless Succession," guides visitors through an archway that combines blue above and green below, a variety of species, and Atayal totems into a nature-surrounded area.
