broken series


the conceptual description of works;

“I never thought that my life would shatter as if it was a crystal breaking up into countless pieces and that I would be freed from the captivity of the past and witness my future. Until that day…

The time is in the present. The past and the future are the twinnings of the present. Breaking, on the other hand, is the beginning of a new story that cannot be returned to again, and which eliminates the creation of the past by itself. It is the story of us all actually.

Each individual carries deep marks of their past and family damage in their selfhood. The energy that the past imposes on us is actually nothing more than what the individual imposes on herself/himself. Over time, we become addicted to the deep marks and attempt to discard this burden that we cannot comprehend. However, the past has been over. It has happened, and it has come to an end. The BREAKINGS through, are the re-birth. The time has come for the energies imposed on our souls to emerge. We must bid farewell to the memory-charged images and objects, to which we have become addicted over time, and liberate them with their own imposed energies. Every detachment from the past is a break and it must deliver new stories with its new energy and new beginnings.

In this story, each Crystal piece symbolizes a break from the past and a reach toward the future, despite being taken out of its context and being tough yet delicate, transparent, and reflective in its shattered state. Just as the unwillingness of our soul to be stuck in a crystal in an effort to break away from the captivity of the past and the chains to which it is attached.
