My work is based on my interest in comics. Using comics to convey my emotions and the stories that transform from them. Stories about my dreams, the monster inside me, chaos and myself.

魇 (NIGHTMARE)

梦,野兽,混沌,它,我
DREAMS,BEAST,CHAOS,IT,ME

我是头野兽
I'm a wild animal


再自由也不过是广阔的牢笼
However free, but a vast cage
我是条疯狗
I'm a mad dog
咬碎自己的欲求也咬断别人的喉脖
I bite my own desires off and bite other people's throats
我是混沌的现在
I'm the chaotic present
却跑不赢那些过去
can't beat those past
和那些梦
and those dreams

清楚的只有
the only things clear
血污和泥泞
are the blood and mud
粘在脚底
left under my feet

逃不出的黑洞
inescapable black hole
醒来也是幻梦
it's still the dream no matter you wake up or not
不如就此睡去
might as well go to sleep
晚安好梦
Good night and sweat dreams
