------------------------------------------------------------------ The titles “I am...” and
“I am...”

contain the uncertainty of my own existence and the process of exploration. This “...” symbolizes endless questioning. I'm still nothing, and this “...” is important precisely because I'm continuing to search for that “who I am.”

What this vacuum shows is an undefined self, an existence with hidden potential, and a moment-to-moment “I” built up in emotions and memories. Throughout the exhibition, I ask the viewers the same questions. Who are we and where are we headed?

I would like to create a moment where we can re-recognize and resonate with the fragments of “who we are” together through emotions and mental landscapes.

“I am...” is a starting point for accepting an indefinable existence and sublimating it, and a signpost for exploration.
