Fluidity of Life - No.1 (2025) 사진 Xidong Luo 로

In the course of our lives we are confronted with countless challenges. By cultivating an attitude of ‘fluidity’ we embrace an essential component of adaptability. Rooted in both philosophy and psychology, this sense of flow encourages us to move with the currents of change rather than resist them.

Ancient Taoist philosophy speaks of the ‘Wu Wei’ principle, which translates to ‘effortless action’ or ‘doing without doing’. This principle teaches us to align ourselves with the natural rhythms and forces around us, allowing us to respond to life’s challenges with grace and flexibility rather than rigidity and resistance.

With the shape of the circle being a symbol of life's cyclicality, the mirror also serves as a metaphor for duality—the seen and the unseen, the transient and the eternal. The blooming bauhinia, a flower deeply rooted in Eastern culture, further enriches this narrative, evoking themes of resilience, harmony, and the perpetual cycle of rebirth.
