- Rotation
The birds are a symbol of life and freedom
For her
Ultimately free as in nature
Freedom, however, is an illusion
Invisible boundaries are set
Boundaries of convention and of the material world
She strives to be free
She captures the birds to learn from them
She is transforming
Rotation happens
She becomes birdlike
But she is not ready
The material world is not easily shaken off
It is engulfing her
The aspirations of love, hope, creativity, freedom
are becoming illusive and even painful
She tries to escape and break out violently
But the boundaries remain around her

- Birds are the one of the most interesting animals in my opinion. Before the invention of the machine for flying,we imagine that birds could see the things we human beings could not. and indeed it is true... Human beings were jealous of the freedom that birds own...
我认为鸟是非常有趣的生物,它们总是可以看到人类看不到的东西(在飞行器发明之前),所以人对鸟更有特殊的想象,人也对鸟所拥有自由感到嫉妒...
