HOLE

 

 

A textile as an electronic instrument.
When a person is born, they are born into a bright and clear time cycle, and as they start to develop and learn, some patterns form in their mind. As they learn, they are dragged into a bottomless hole with the weight of this knowledge. It seeks ways to regenerate by transforming. Sometimes by ignoring it, sometimes by surrendering to it…
In this work, the artist quotes Rabindranath Tagore’s prayer to God, which called “The Grasp of Your Hand”, to grow new hope into his own darkness.
Let me not pray to be sheltered from dangers,
But to be fearless in facing them.
Let me not beg for the stilling of my pain,
But for the heart to conquer it.
Let me not look for allies in life’s battlefield,
But to my own strength.
Let me not crave in anxious fear to be saved,
But hope for the patience to win my freedom.
Feeling Your mercy in my success alone;
But let me find the grasp of Your hand in my failure.
