Ennui of No Name is a project which is about “hiatus”. I decided to go to a metropoli to find an internship because I had nothing to do after taking a gap year from school. Just before I completed my three months internship, an unknown void and fear which was even greater than before overwhelmed me, so I returned to my hometown as a “deserter” from the tier-1 city with a spiritual void and a vague pain in my right knee from overuse.

I stayed in my hometown for 2 months. I rarely interacted with people and spent most of the time walking along the country roads and ridges, taking photos, writing novels an painting. Gradually something that I had lost came back. I tried to organize my works and started to make garments as manifestations of my feelings during this period of time in order to find an answer to the question - WHO AM I?
