Matter Matters is a conceptial art installation exploring the essence of individual existence. By revealing the rise and
fall of a tulip's life, it presents the vitality and changes of each moment of life.
The title plays on the multiple meanings of the word "matter," referring to both "existences" and "importance." By deconstructing the growth of tulips — from their emergence and layering to their eventual fading, it conveys the core message, “Every moment in each individual’s life is meaningful and significant; it all matters.”
Using the tulips as a metaphorical visual symbol, it illustrates the significance and dynamic nature of each individual existence within the broader collective.
