Hello, citizens of Acity!
The work I created today, [Chiasme: The Living Flesh], was written based on the theories of "The Flesh (Le Chair)" and "Chiasm (Chiasme)" by the master of modern phenomenology, Maurice Merleau-Ponty.
While we often think of the artist as a subject who observes and paints an object, Merleau-Ponty believed that in the act of creation, a "chiasm"—an intertwining—occurs where the world and the body face each other and blend into one. I have structured these lyrics as a narrative that evolves from the "thirst of the canvas" to the "indulgence of color," and finally to "immortal completion."
The Muse in this video, Luna, is not a detached observer sitting elegantly in a chair. Instead, she lies on the floor, throwing her entire body into the world of paint, becoming a part of that world herself. The luster on her skin and the pigments on the floor mirror each other, while the brush held in her mouth becomes an extension of her body—a tool to interpret existence.
The "marble statue" standing behind her symbolizes a frozen, taxidermied ideal. It stands in stark contrast to the Muse’s "living flesh," which constantly moves, suffers, and tempts. The line "A radiant chiasme where the swallowed world is reborn in me" declares a sacred dissolution where the boundaries between the seer and the seen collapse.
The agony of a designer who chooses a living stain over frozen perfection. Within this heated chaos where subject and object intertwine, I hope you experience a time of pleasant contemplation as your senses awaken.

00:04Immortality is a cold, frozen state
00:07I chose the trembling stain instead
00:20Sinking into the core of a hunger that hollows out the air
00:23Leaving the order of the chair to embrace the viscosity down there
00:27Miners flow into the tip of this tool, becoming one
00:31Not an interpreter of the world, but the one whom the world has begun
00:34Seeking a single pulse to shatter this transparent silence
00:41The gaze of the white marble behind me, stagnant dead perfection
00:45The weight of a heavy life that a carved idol can never envision
00:49The moment the bleeding light crosses the threshold of my skin
00:53The borders suffocate, I become the very abyss I've been looking in
00:56A radiant chasm where the swallowed world is reborn in me
01:03The living flesh, the chair, woven from shadows in a glowing sea
01:11Scorning the stillness of statues that soak in this fluid temptation
01:17Where senses become lines and agony turns to a bright vibration
01:27Chasm, I am the flesh of the world
01:34The luster on my skin is not a mirror, but a gateway to sink deep
01:39The tremors of the world flow through my veins, a promise
01:42I keep closing the eyes that merely watch I drown in this tidal wave
01:48Choosing the stain of instinct over the blueprint they gave
01:52Throwing my hottest pulse into the cracks of frozen time
01:58The smile of a statue knows no thirst
02:01I'd rather break and fade away than live
02:04Without this ache of being alive
02:08By, by, by, by, by, by, by, by, by
02:34The face of statues I soak in this fluid temptation
02:39Where senses become lines and agony turns to a bright vibration
02:48I am the vision, the void and the vibration
03:03This chaotic choice
03:06Is the proof of my existence
03:10Now, touch it, my living truth
03:13Now, touch it, my living truth
