The Burden

 

“The Burden” is my new live performance dealing with two major meanings. The first meaning is that this piece presents multi burdens that everyone has to handle without any objections. Thus, the performance is started by putting one backpack on my back that clearly represents individual burden. At the same time, I am not only handle my own burden, but I also offer a full hand to carry other burdens from family, work, and friends. To present those burdens, audiences are asked to place different kinds of bags to different kinds of objects at different places that can be on myself, a side of me, or other places which are connected. As they are weighty, they will be sooner or later off from my hand at once day even I do wish to lift them up properly. The second meaning is that referred to greediness of human being that has never felt sufficiently enough to what they own.
