Carl Sagan calls Earth 'the pale blue dot'. 'The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines ... on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.'(Carl Sagan, Pale Blue Dot, 1994) Sacred and insignificant, staunch and fragile, human beings explore the world strenuously, and disappear like dust.

The exhibition will remain on view at Gallery Yang till 6th October.
