Sun Shower

3 Apr, 2014 (Thu.) 4 pm – 6 pm
Total Run Time: 68 minutes

The world we see in our everyday lives is made up of diverse forms that coexist and share a common time and space. With its organic rhythm, structure and way of existence, nature allows seemingly contradictory realities to coexist. There is Yin and there is Yang; there are men and there are women; there is strong and there is the weak; there is agreement and there is disagreement. Balance, with respect and conscience, is harmony. Turbulence happens when one side tries to dominate the other violently. But more often, we tend to be going back and forth restlessly. Indecisive. Both sides seem appealing for different reasons. One reality develops and forms into another new reality. It’s all work-in-progress and we’re not sure what it’ll become at the end. This might be the general atmosphere of a developing community, which has much potential, to become basically, anything. But what do we want to become? Do we share similar life values as a collective? Where are we going? Shall we stop, just for a moment, to go inward and ponder, or even having a little fun with the chaos and uncertainty, when it rains while the sun is shining very brightly out there?
