《DMDLÄ: 삶으로의 항해》
바다 위의 스치듯 밀려오는 파도는
끊임없이 부서지고 사라진다.
손을 뻗어도 닿지 않고,
다가가려 할수록 더 멀어지는 듯 한 파도는
행복한 인생을 향한 우리의 끝없는 갈망과 닮아 있다.
닿을 수 없기에 더 절실하고, 멈추지 않기에 강인한.

제목
The sea never ceases.
Its waves drift and return,
forever breaking,
forever dissolving into the quiet vastness.
We reach toward them, yet they recede; the nearer we come,
the farther they seem to move away.
These waves, elusive and radiant, mirror our own longing our endless desire for a life that feels whole, that shimmers just beyond our grasp.
The work
The title borrows from Rainer Maria Rilke’s words, “Du mußt dein Leben ändern”(You must change your life). It is a whisper, both tender and insistent, urging us toward the possibility that the voyage itself is what alters us.
For the sea does not rest. In its unending rhythm, we, too, learn to breathe anew, to become, again and again, something other than what we were.
