what lies ahead

"creativity has meaning only when there are boundaries and limitations to be broken. when there aren't, the so-called creativity is just anyhow doing something. people only can appreciate your creativity when they see you've gone beyond some sort of boundary.

like painting, like photography. there are known standards. you need to surpass such standards for people to understand and accept your creativity. this is relativity. no matter how you wish to perceive creativity as an individual piece of artwork, when it is meaningless, it becomes insane."

Marcus Goh, during the hours-long chat at 'ah fang' with Shixiong, Suf and myself, night before my exam.

wise words. blew me away.
