In the video part of the work, Shi Yong conveys the desire to pursue by imitating animals' behavior. Under the fantastic atmosphere created by neon lights, music, and image, the audience reaches the state of "flying". Imagination and expectation always make people excited. The state of "flying" is indulging in fantasy during the pursuit process, but not after. And it does indicate some potential danger. It's just like the pain of a man lying in bed and dreaming a good dream, suddenly he fell on the ground due to carelessness.
The medicine box and the neon lights make up a parabola. The concept of a parabola can express precisely the idea of this creation: it contains the process of rising and falling. In this work, Shi Yong emphasizes the rising part of it, making the potential danger invisible and more astonishing.
