A Flower’s Dilemma (2024)
Life is rooted in death. Trees grow from fallen leaves, and new life emerges from past remnants. Our existence depends on the death of other beings—each breath and meal connects us to their sacrifice. We stand on our ancestors' legacy whose genetic, spiritual, or material contributions shape us. Life and death form a cyclical pattern, with rebirth through reincarnation, resurrection, or enlightenment. They are inseparable, two sides of the same coin, revealing a singular truth. Therefore, I have decided to create this particular piece to amplify my expressions of life and death in coexistence.
