animated comic / wire-o bound book | 2022

Everything shares the same root. Exisiting both as an animated comic and a book, the story following a montage narrative draws upon a travel episode.

Translation of text:
That day, I sat on the green by the shore.
Look—another traveler lay beside quietly.
Goodbye to soil and restraint,
Goodbye to time.
What lies ahead encapsulates the past up to this moment.
It will be engraved in the memory of the earth,
fade, ground down, and return.
“I can’t take this body with me. It’s too heavy.”
“But it will be like an old, abandoned shell—
there’s nothing sad about an old shell…”
Wither and fall yearn for the same embrace.
We are all still children.
