“Through this series of works, we aim to bring plants back to their essence—where roots grow chaotically and branches flourish, born from the chaos of the underground. They never follow rules, nor do they rely on hope to exist. The ethereal aspirations and the need for cleanliness and order that humans marvel at are not necessities for a seed.
A seed only pursues the light it needs to survive, embracing all the unknowns that come after breaking through the soil. It does not feel fortunate for glimpsing a ray of light after being buried deep in darkness. They live in chaos and brilliance, and therefore, we choose to respect their existence as it is, without imposing any special meaning upon them.”

“How can Plants, as a theme, affect your emotions?”
“Keep what they are. Respect the brutality and nothingness of nature.”
