Miscellaneous Homo Sapien / 分类不明的智人生物 /

There comes a moment in time when one rediscovers the enormity of intuition that had been forcibly hidden behind the formality of life for years. Once awakened, one is transformed in entirety and for eternity. Confronted with the thirst for meaning, intuition guides us to a path that never before revealed itself. To create, in whatever shape or form we can, seems the only rational answer, amid the bleak limitations of being itself and the chaotic absurdity that denies our wish to assert certainty and clarity.

Shadowed by the capitalistic working condition that entrapped our bounded beings with chains in disguise, disheartened by the social apparatus and the obscene inequalities within, driven by an innate desire to understand the foundations of our social and scientific world, and propelled by an instinctual preference for qualitative meanings, I embarked on the pathway to transcendence through philosophy and art.

To live contemplatively, governed by the pursuit of truths, and to reflect creatively through various mediums, is what I do.
