Ten Thousand Teardrops

My Paper Creation at the Exhibition, Paper Alchemy

Paper pulp teardrop

10 Thousand Teardrops is an exploration of love, loss, and the fragile connections that bind us. Using pineapple fibre pulp, cotton thread, and paper, I created a delicate installation of twelve rings suspended from intertwined twigs—each surface worn and perforated, giving a sense of weakness and sadness.

Inspired by the Greek myth of Ariadne, who gave Theseus a ball of red thread to navigate the labyrinth only to be abandoned by him, this piece reflects the moment she watches his ship disappear. The red thread, a symbol of destiny in Japanese folklore, resonates deeply with me. It represents both connection and separation, hope and despair.

Through intricate details and fragile materials, I invite viewers to see the beauty within imperfection, the strength in delicate things, and the threads—both seen and unseen—that weave our stories together.

It was rained again. But inside the exhibition space was filled with laughter and happiness.
We exhibited our own works and painted near the tables, talked and demonstrated our skills and learnt a lot.
Thank you for sharing a wonderful rainy weekend!
