"AS ABOVE, SO BELOW is a mixed media installation named after the Emerald Tablet, a cryptic alchemical text articulating the principle of correspondence between different planes of existence. The work contemplates the invisible threads that bind the cosmos, echoing the axiom that the microcosm mirrors the macrocosm. Juxtaposed landscape visuals from across the world fold distant geographies into a single shared space, dissolving the illusion of separation. The installation draws on the Buddhist concept of Interbeing, articulated by Zen master Thích Nhất Hạnh. Interbeing reveals that nothing exists in isolation: a leaf contains the rain, the sun, the soil, the wind, and even the logger; all are part of a vast, interdependent web. Each breath connects us to the forest; every drop of rain carries memories from afar. The material world that speaks to our senses is thus a living fabric of mutual presence. To touch one element is to touch the whole — a notion that resonates with Quantum Entanglement, where distant particles remain mysteriously connected beyond space and time."
