Intermediate State by Curry Tian

The DAO is obscured by minor [conceptual] successes, and words are obscured by vaingloriousness and pomposity. Intermediate State is a virtual practice inspired by “The Eight Journeys” towards Nirvana in Buddhist philosophy. In the 461 series, we describe the paths to enlightenment and the release from suffering including conception, birth, departure, subjugation, enlightenment, preaching, and two stages of nirvana. There is nothing superior in desiring to show to be true what others deny and denying what others affirm true than the use of brightness. Curry Sicong Tian is a US-China based multidisciplinary visual artist, whose talent ranges across Director, concept/digital artist, 3D mographer, and fashion photographer, not in a segregated way but artfully blending the vastly different mediums into a seamless harmony of leading edge expression.
