山鬼的眾生相
Prelude to Mountain Ghost

「若有人兮山之阿,披薜荔兮帶女蘿」—《山鬼》九歌
我是誰,在我體內的,也許是神,或是一場永劫回歸。
《山鬼的眾生相》主要受楚辭《九歌》中的《山鬼》啟發,探索身分認同、性別流動,以及生命歸屬。有人說這是一首致敬山神的歌曲,有人認為是山神在看守一位凡間戀人時的回音。而我們是否能繼續訴說故事使自己更溫柔、更完整。
"Prelude to Mountain Ghost" draws its spirit from the ancient Chinese poem The Mountain Spirit, part of Nine Songs by Qu Yuan (343–278 B.C.). The ethereal confluence of longing and mysticism of that poem has long mesmerised me. It speaks to the liminal spaces where we dwell—those we are bound by, and those we yearn to transcend. It has often left me pondering:
How long is ‘now’?
How did we come to be?
The only place I can never lose myself, is in myself.
Alone yet moving,
In the rhythm of beginning, middle, and end.
Are we simply the stories we tell?
