Short Synopsis: | Ennui of No Name is a project which is about"hiatus".I decided to go to a metropolis to find an internship because i had nothing to do after taking a gap year from school.Just before I completed my three monthsinternship,an unknown void and fear which was even greater than before overwhelmed me,so I returned to myhometown as a "deserter"from the tier-1city with a spiritual void and a vague pain in my right knee from overuse. I stayed in my hometown for 2 months.I rarely interactedwith people and spent most of the time walking along thecountry roads and ridges,taking photos,writing novels and painting.Gradually something that I had lost came back.I tried to organize my works and started to make garments as manifestations of my feelings during this period of time in order to find an answer to the questionWHO AM I? Although Ennui of No Name does not directly answer thisquestion,it offers a sense of communion---a feeling of being on the edge of the society yet still feeling good in your own skin;a feeling which appears on a summer afternoon;a feeling which appears when you are lying alone in bed and feeling languishing. |
