Nothing and Everything
Mizzonk’s Nothing and Everything is a sand installation embodying impermanence and non-dual perception. Nothing is ever held, yet nothing is ever lost. The work distills Eastern philosophies into a quiet meditation on time, thought, and existence, revealing impermanence as the nature of all things.
Fleeting and eternal, dissolution and form—each arises within the other. Sand, an elusive material, captures a moment yet evokes eternity. Light and shadow shift as the observer moves, the grains resisting fixation like thought itself. The frame, both passage and mirror, affirms that observer and observed are never separate.
Here, the self does not stand apart from experience but dissolves into it. Subject and object blur, revealing a deeper continuity. The space is empty and full, transient and whole. To stand within it is to witness the truth both unsettling and liberating.
The installation Nothing and Everything won the 2015 TID (Taiwan Interior Design) Award of Space Installation Art and was published in the 2015-2017 TID Award Publication.
The installation Nothing and Everything debuted at the Center on Contemporary Art in Seattle in June 2017.

觀虛實 探有無
人的心境似意識流, 如每一剎那的過往, 不停不止, 在空曠寧靜的空間裡, 微光下, 由短暫易逝的沙框來詢觀者, 一切虛實有無, 臥於觀者之心.
Mizzonk 的 觀虛實 探有無 | Nothing And Everything 是一個沙裝置,體現了無常與不二的感知。沒有什麼是永遠存在的,但也沒有什麼是永遠失去的。這件作品將東方哲學提煉為對時間、思想和存在的寧靜冥想,揭示了無常是萬物的本質。
轉瞬即逝與永恆、解體與形狀,每一種都在另一種中產生。沙,一種難以捉摸的材質,捕捉瞬間卻喚起永恆。光影隨著觀察者的移動而轉移,沙粒就像思想本身一樣抗拒固定。框既是通道又是鏡子,肯定了觀察者與被觀察者從未分離。
在這裡,自我並不是獨立於經驗之外,而是溶入其中。主體與客體變得模糊,展現出更深層的連續性。這個空間既空虛又充實,既瞬間又完整。站在其中,見證既令人不安又令人解放的真相。
