강:물 (river:water)
i flow along the riverbed
quietly with the fish
hitting rocks and bumps along the way
//
i fall until i catch myself
again an endless fight
i float graciously and with strength
wherever the path leads me
//
eventually where i belong.
강:물 is about the trials and tribulations one faces reimagined through the flow of a river. Through semi-transparent material and fragile structures, this work embodies myself transformed into the water of a river treading through my current journey in life.
