Going back to my childhood memories of keeping silkworms. The physical existence of human beings was erased, and only my consciousness as an experiencer existed in my childhood bedroom. My existence in the past decomposed in the Animism Garden of my childhood. My physical body felt tired in human society, and my cyber body/consciousness returned to the "classroom", where the children worship silkworms and rejoice in their transformation - they are divine beings rather than any other manmade shapes. In the secret rituals, words from anthropocentric ideology are invading. Nevertheless, all the matter will be decomposed, as planetary changes, because in the end, the cosmos has it all... * -- An animism garden, without urbanization, politicization, or commodification– where nature reclaims itself, alongside the concept of "Extinction of mankind, everything comes alive.”

MANIFESTO

It seems to me that the choice of the topic for my degree project comes from my deepest desires. I asked myself over and over again "If you only had one chance, what would you do?" I am living in a human society. I saw a lot of terrible news on the internet every day. I feel angry, I feel desperate, and then soon I feel tired. I wish I could fix this problem because it creates some collective trauma, and the desire to "fix it" creates disaster again. In this project, I used to try to explain and justify my way of existence and "solve the problem". And I realized that I don’t have to. The "man-made society" gives meanings and binary to everything against every living being’s way of existence, for me, it is "man-made trouble", not nature. When I threw away all the labels, meanings, and binaries that were created by humanity, I was soon backed to the vast cosmos. There are NO BOUNDARIES between every living being. We are just lucky enough to exist, and everything we have will eventually return to the universe. Therefore I don’t need to explain my existence, like everything doesn’t need to. I am meant to be, I am a free being in the universe, and my body carries it, not the “political body” that others defined. I have the freedom to leave humanity behind and free from the body, existing as wind, a tree, a stone, and everything as “non-human” came alive. They were talking to me: "If the sun was going to explode tomorrow, what would you do?" When I started this project, the answer was not sure. This process is a journey to find my answers. I will take you to experience the not-so-beautiful landscape along the way.
