"Lotus in Flux"
In this work, the lotus symbolizes “truth.”
Rooted in the mud yet reaching for the light, its ever-changing form reflects the shifting nature of our beliefs and values across time. Through body, projection, and origami, the piece explores how truth dissolves and reforms on the surface of a changing world.
The performance begins with a projection of a decaying lotus, followed by the emergence of a wandering body, and finally, the birth of new life through the movements of folded paper.
This installation and performance invites the audience to confront the instability of truth and seek its meaning together in a shared space of reflection.
