Personal Odyssey

Spending one month and a half on Trans-Mongolian Railway trip, with over 7,500 km in total, is creating the mindscape large enough to contemplate the meaning of life, experience the unknown and exploring a deeper understanding of life.

A ‘Spiritual Quest’ which exists in the inner self; its mystery intriguing and impossible to unweave. Personal Odyssey, playing the role of an explorer, wanders through journey of life.

My discovery of ‘Self-Odyssey’ was verbally scripted by 13 candidates. Each were cast in a reality show, where they were interviewed about their personal lives and experiences. As I listened, I find myself wandering through their self-passage towards their quest.

The script was constructed by rearranging the words to bring out my perspective and interpretation of 'Odyssey'.  The supporting visuals are of my path through the Trans-Mongolian journey.

 

I’ve come to realise that life is the longest journey.  A journey full of surprises, doubts, and uncertainties.

So you may ask, ‘How does one live through such a journey?’

The answer is simple, ‘By not giving a f*ck and living it to the fullest.’
