DOKU – Digital Descending

Alone we are born,
and alone we come into the world, When we die, alone we pass away.

For no one shares our fate, and none our suffering.

So what are they to me,
such ‘friends’ and all their hindrances?.”

ーThe Larger Sutra on Amitāyus

Artist Lu Yang reincarnated as “Doku” into a digital parallel universe. Without the constraints of time and space, being free from the shackles of physical needs and identity, Doku is born to explore the secret of human mind and the intention of the universe.
