Metaphysics (2) is a continuation and development of the earlier project Metaphysics (1). It originates from a childhood experience that could not be explained by medicine, in which a family ritual and its perceived effects prompted reflection on forces beyond scientific verification yet deeply embedded in belief and perception.
While Metaphysics (1) focused on metaphysical symbols, Metaphysics (2) shifts its emphasis toward the traces left after burning, treating residue and aftermath as a central logic of transformation. Drawing on concepts from Chinese metaphysics, the project translates combustion, smoke, and material remains into wearable objects. Rather than asserting metaphysics as truth, the work explores how belief and the unseen become perceptible through material transformation and physical traces.
