Inspired by the Zen Buddhism, this art piece captures the image of a transient thread of smoke, in the shape of flower, or maybe a girl, charming, sensuous and lingering. Solid, liquid and gas are not the only forms of existence. Neither are they the starting and finishing of physical transformation. We have no idea of the past life of this thread of smoke, which never knows it will appear in front of us as its next life. Reincarnation can never be envisaged until it dawns upon us. So, do we still have to be troubled?
