Traveller· The one who tied the bell

by Lihao Lu

‘旅人·系铃人’

‘Traveller· The one who tied the bell’

Inspired by an old Chinese saying，

“解铃还须系铃人。”

“Untying the bell can only be done by the person who tied the bell.”

One of the many perspectives of this proverb(谚语) helped illustrate the idea of overthinking. Sometimes the knots in our mind were tangled up by ourselves, therefore we are the only one who can undo the mess.

''I like to use dark and subtle colours to capture my thoughts and emotions. Though the colours and expression might look a little depressing, but I feel truly comfortable when I paint with muted tone with a tint of sorrow.''
