China's long-term yearning for the west and learning, can create a discourse of conflict and variation, but is also enriching for their own culture in this exchange.

The traditional Chinese mysticism holds that everything has an inherent energy, and that only when matter is attached to the flame can its energy be released, and that only when the flame is attached to the burning matter can it not be extinguished. Intangible culture is attached to tangible material to be retained and transmitted. People can not touch the flame, but always feel its temperature.

The video was originally created as an explanation for the video 'Unsettled'. But then it became a work of its own, and as a result I got caught up in more interpretation, I wanted to make it easier for the audience from different cultural backgrounds to understand the work in this way, providing a similar context which turns out to be more complicated. The video strayed from my original intention, but watch it 'Unsettled'.

The Forbidden City, The Imperial Palace of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, is located in the capital of China. It is regarded as a symbol of Chinese culture. Later, two Palace Museums were built in Taiwan, and a Palace Museum has a branch in Hong Kong.

Under different discourses, their original meanings are gradually hollowed out and replaced, they complement and resist each other, they serve as the background of each other, and erode each other.

But in the gap between the different Palace Museums, what lingers is a familiar temperament and aura.

I was forced to move during the Covid outbreak, and I was locked down here for almost a year. Imagine my experience of moving all the time.

I miss those days with my family day and night, the process is a little difficult, but flat and full.
