superposition \ true ch’ien
—all paths taken
In this essay, I break down Lindy Lee's series of artworks titled 'true ch’ien'. In doing so I work through
ideas
choices and consequences: How we are connected and defined by the choices we make as much as we are connected to
the
choices we didn't make. That we are the totality of the choices we made that brought us here and the choices we
could
have made that wouldn't bring us here. It's a weird and fun piece of writing I wrote in uni and I really love
it. It's
about a ten minute read if you're down for it.
Just press the buttons below and have a look and hopefully enjoy.
