“Constellation, not Sequencing, carries Truth”
It is a work that is about at least four elements: time, memories, body and constant changes. Every fraction of a second of our lives is responsible for our aging, and every moment of our lives represents some kind of change. For me this is a very comforting and liberating thought. We don‘t have to stay the same from birth to death. We are constantly changing.
「Blooming 是描绘“缘”,是关于至少四个元素的作品:时间,记忆,身体和不断的变化。就像天上的星星,我们的生活,我们的身体作为命运和经历的容器,形成了一个相互链接的恒星网络,而不仅仅是序列。
身体直觉地知道,什么时候让世界和生活本就蕴含着的无限诗意单独存在,不发表意见,也需要文字来解释。这是雨中泪试图唱出对生命的觉悟。是生命之歌」

「Don’t look at me: a Fashion-Science Experiment」@youthies_magazine #youthieseditorials
Before I became a photographer, I was an engineer by profession and was fascinated by superposition states in quantum mechanics. The Ability of a quantum system to be in Multiple States at the same time until it is measured. Much like waves in classical physics, any two (or more) quantum states can be added together (“superposed”).
But if you look at it -- Collapse, the superposition collapses into a single state as soon as an observer intervenes. In Schrodinger Cat experiment, we can tell alive from dead, but we can’t build an apparatus for which those would be eigen states. The thing we can “measure” is a huge superposition of states that we call “alive” or “dead”.
If particles (models) which are “Past”, “Present” & “Future”, in the quantum realm, the order of time is disordered and has a wonderful reaction. Just like the two-slit interference experiment, we are all observers, and after the observation has taken place, the superimposed particles collapse into a definite time state.
What about the results of this Fashion-Science Experiment?

Our Bodies as Vessels, as a central motif, is presented not merely as a physical entity but as a repository for ephemeral moments and a vessel of self-transformation.
The project named ”Blooming“ fuses fashion with contemporary dance, delving deep into the exploration of physical and emotional connections among individuals. Blooming is a Buddhist allegory of fate, about the flowering of a seed,on a changing timeline in which there is a changing self, an awareness of trouble, an ability to perceive happiness, and love. Our bodies are stacked with many coincidences, misfortunes, contingencies, contingencies, and necessity.

'This project explores how classical chivalric culture and contemporary motorcycle culture overlap, focusing specifically on how power and class identity are conveyed and potentially transformed through clothing and symbolism. Knights formed the military backbone of feudalism, while horses—their ‘horsepower’—represented absolute power. This was the exclusive preserve of nobility and the elite. The “chivalric code” served, to some extent, as a means for the ruling class to self-glorify and regulate internal conduct.
Moreover, modern motorcyclists embody a dual image, both romanticized and stigmatized. The motorcycle inherits the symbolic meaning of the horse—freedom, power, and individualism. It is the “iron steed” of modern industrial society. This project aims to explore and challenge how traditional knightly culture uses symbolism to reinforce status, by contrasting and integrating it with the identity-building practices of contemporary motorcycle culture. It is aim to question whether class and power can be literally and figuratively ‘worn.'

Pain is a rite of passage,
There are no adults in this world,
Only —
The wrinkled child.
Like the fragile resilience of grass.
Like a mermaid taking each painful, beautiful step on land.
Sprint, tired, clench your teeth,
And then take a deep breath,
Sweat drops, ice melting,
Blooming
Like Tears in Rain
为它写的小诗——
痛苦是成人礼,
这世界上没有大人,
只有——
长皱的小孩。
小草脆弱,美人鱼步行,
冲刺,疲惫,咬紧牙关,
然后深吸一口气,
在所有痛的地方。
汗水滴落,冰晶融化,
生根开花。
Like Tears in Rain
