Overview
In the pursuit of knowledge,
every day something is added.
In the practice of the Tao,
every day something is dropped
— Lao Tzu, Tao Te Ching, Chapter 48
(translation by S. Mitchell)
I started this project with an intention to overcome the loss of home and language in adapting to a foreign country. Along this process, I have tried to keep close to all things, people and places that seem to exist in a state of flux; observing, and seeking harmony within the ephemeral.
