Edition of 6 + 1AP
CXYU070

This work shows in 3 channels trying to discuss the hollowness of life, social barriers, desires, twisted love and rough understanding of memories. Author wrote many monologue blinking with images, time and space shifted, this work is filled with fragmented feelings towards our inside and outside life and hysterical personal experiences and explanation which shows the artist's high densified video writing. Video is not a way of watching but also a way for us to read.
