Original artwork description:

I often feel like a small creature in the circle of life. A tiny monad, a vessel filled with drops of life, and obliged to carry it to the very end without spilling a single drop. And ideally, even multiplying them.
I believe this is the meaning of life in general, to increase its very essence. And this is done by stars and planets, and by people, and by insects, and even by stones. We are all spinning together in this endless whirlpool.
And we don’t just flounder, we go through all sorts of tests, it’s like a game. And each of them gives another precious drop there.

Materials used:

fabric, thread, floss, silkworm cocoon, glass bead
