05. Tree Monologue
I look for the trees that do not exist in the forest and stand alone. In this process, imagine that society is like a forest and the trees are like us as human beings. Each individual is using the energy of ontology and trying to emit a faint light into the group. But we gradually forget that we are also an individual, just like the tree, who is lonely but free, nihilistic but romantic. To grow wildly, not to recognise ourselves only through the reflection in the eyes of others. I communicate with those who sit alone under the tree to compose a beautiful poem together, in the process allowing them to be the intermediary between me and the tree, and then allowing me to be this transmitter to my audience.
In the delivery of the poem, I hope to build a mood of longing for the self, and I hope that I, and the reader, will begin to think about my relationship with society. To measure the relationship between the pros and cons of everything within the natural social structure centred on man, and the development of individual destinies mixed in with this change, which in turn seems to escape the definitive collective consciousness, while the underlying feelings that abound are incredibly fiery and particular. I try to make these trees reframe each of us individually. I hope to 'escape' the existence of the group as this tree does, to explore the process and to start from within, to nurture myself again.
