Artist Statement
Have you ever met someone for the first time and had the strongest feeling that you’ve met before? And if so, have you wondered why? According to In Yun, the ancient Korean belief, we don’t meet people by accident; rather, all encounters are guided by fate. This concept relates to reincarnation, where we meet in different lifetimes, playing different roles. Are our souls connected by invisible threads that nobody can see but can certainly be felt? Some people come into our lives as loved ones, while others are here to be our teachers. The Twin Flame Ideology, or The Red Thread Theory, go even further. It speaks of two people being part of one soul, even when separated by time or distance, but never truly apart.
"When the Sky Fell" is not only a story about love and loss but, more importantly, a story about hope. Hope that even when two souls are separated, they will ultimately find each other again and again.
