Truman Brewery, F Block, Ground, first and second floors

For countless moments, I imagined myself hovering in the air as the smallest particle in the universe, here, there, everywhere, or nowhere at all.

I’m no longer struggling, I let the time lead my way.


I embrace its romance and sadness inside while it, time, separates me into pieces and heals my pain piece by piece in the mean time.

I remain, the endless me, the me of every possibility, flowing, flowing in the paradoxical and complex rules of time.


Time brought me here, I think.
