On the Heavens 2.0 宇宙的描述2.0

Joint exhibition “TIAMAT - All These Worlds Are Yours Except Earth”
'In the beginning God created mankind in their image, and then, man created God in his image.'
The work explores the concept of a future myth, imagining a scenario in which space colonists in the vast cosmos are amazed and grateful for the pioneering efforts of Earth's early astronauts who established the "New World". Over generations, the astronaut sublimes into a supreme being, retaining both human characteristics and a trans-human structure infused with Earth culture.
Through reductionism, the work seeks to comprehend how the space colonists create this supreme being in their own image, and how it is elevated to the status of a god through daily worship, with religious beliefs ultimately becoming a tool of worship.
