"From Dust, To Dust" is inspired by dust, which is both material and infinitely close to nothingness, and is the "breath of matter".
The work is made by kiln-made glass technology, exploring the boundaries between matter and spirit, order and chaos, life and death. Through the symbol of pebbles, it tells the story of the cycle of the universe and the transformation of matter, showing the romance and poetry in the life cycle of all things in the universe. Soil is the starting point and end point of all life, and also the boundary of the cycle of life. Between soil and furnace, in transparency and silence, the work constructs a flow field between order and disorder, connecting the individual's short-lived existence with the eternal cycle of the universe. The work uses materials such as dust, soil, and glass to form a dialogue with pebbles, constructing a narrative about the universe, time, and life, prompting the audience to re-examine their own connection with nature, time, and others.
