Butoh Artist in Residence, Taipei 54

The exhibition closes on Mondays. 

I'm thinking what "Future Temple" is.

The start point of this creation was the soul. 

How we think about the soul now. It's not  religious things. It's the matter of reality of people in this world.

I collaborated with 6 members to create the stage decoration. 

This Collaboration didn't have a pre-made goal, so it was like a work of our unconscious. 

We discussed through our artworks.

It made it clear what problem is surrounding us now.

It also showed me the hopes.

There are many problems and many irrational things in the world where we live.

We can't know everything, we can't control everything.

To live is active, creative and emotional. It produces treasures and garbages.

What's the difference between them?

When we judge or name something, the difference occurs.

When I love these plastic bags, these aren't garbage any more. 

How do we live in this tough situation?

Our imagination is unlimited.
