Central to the essence of "Tao" are the principles of "following nature" and "the unity of heaven and man." These core tenets find resonance within the thematic framework of the project, as articulated by Eckhart Tolly. Coming of age during a period characterized by rapid urbanization and a restrictive political environment in China, the artist's enduring aspiration has been to seek an avenue of "escape" and cultivate a utopian realm within their psyche. For the artist, this project signifies both a profound voyage towards inner healing and a process of reconstructing inner framework.
