(This is a story about change and adaptation. Humans in the jungle and animals in the city. I call it A Moving Forest. In the moving forest, I act as the translator/storyteller between two different creatures and worlds. Since I have lived and travelled in different countries outside of my own, I have been sometimes lost in translation, a stranger who is adapting. In being lost at times, I also found new and interesting discoveries. It is very natural for me to admire animals and nature because they are all about origins of new communications. The Moving Forest project illustrates this. I made connected stories from my imagination using the animals, and these stories inspired me again to create images.)
