This project was born out of the young artist's confrontation with social misfortunes and her ego, an intense experience of her as an individual looking inward and questioning. In these uncertain times, she has witnessed the spread of war and pestilence, while a family member has lost his job and her friend has died. All this was a precise descending blow for her, and although she was abroad, the disorientation of being powerless to do anything about her home was excruciating. Every night, lying in bed, she imagines herself as an embryo, not yet removed from its mother's womb, curled up in the amniotic fluid; a way of escaping from the terrible reality and waiting for the next day's sunshine. Perhaps it is precise because of this confrontation with the insignificance of the body, the loneliness of the human being, and the history of repetition that one is more eager to communicate with one's senses. So the artist aspires to create a unique sense of history, time, and life, reject the cultural reproduction of art, reject the destruction of the only spiritual world left by the outside world, and rethink the identity of the times and art to create.

該項目源于藝術家對社會不幸和自我的直面，是她作爲個體向內審視和質疑的強烈體驗。在這個不確定的時代，她目睹了戰爭和瘟疫的蔓延，家人失業，朋友去世。這壹切對她來說無疑是雪上加霜，雖然身在國外，但對自己的家無能爲力的失落感讓她痛苦不堪。每天晚上躺在床上，她都會把自己想象成壹個還未脫離母體的胚胎，蜷縮在羊水中，以此來逃避可怕的現實，等待第二天的陽光。也許正是因爲面對身體的渺小、人類的孤獨以及重複的曆史，人們才會更加渴望用感官進行交流。于是，藝術家渴望創造壹種獨特的曆史感、時間感、生命感，拒絕藝術的文化複制，拒絕外界對僅存的精神世界的破壞，重新思考創作的時代身份和藝術身份。
