C’est La Vie, derived from French meaning "That's Life," reflects my understanding of life at the age of 22—a process of self-adjustment, maintaining flexibility to meet ever-changing needs and challenges.
I have divided the process of self-adjustment into seven stages:
TIE: Binding
TRAP: Falling into unfinished dreams
SAVE: Self-awareness and self-rescue
MUDDY: Confusion, contradiction, tug-of-war
CHANGE: Transformation
BURN: Spontaneous combustion of energy
RETURN: Return and liberation
These seven stages are represented in a spectrum of colors transitioning from black to white, culminating in silver and reflections, embodying the perception of will from a state of dim despair to self-generated luminescent energy. Utilitarian buckles, drawstrings, etc., manifest the survival instinct of "self-rescue," freeing oneself from internal struggles and exploring the energy of internal combustion.
