HUMAN WHEEL

人轮
疲于奔波的人们就像仓鼠轮上的仓鼠，踏上轮子之前他们的目的或是为了挣钱、或是为了快乐、或是为了生活。但后来时间长了，在轮子上跑这件事反而变成了他们生活的目的和意义。
很多时候，我们奔跑去追求的所谓的社会繁荣发展和某个假想的幸福目标，这些都是一个非常抽象的概念，它无法被具体化，即永远没有办法实现和到达，但又有无数的人为了这个概念去压榨自己，物化自己的生活。
只要有一个人在生活中，感觉自己好像停滞不前时，能想到“或许我可以选择从这个轮子或旋转木马上下来”的那一刻——这个项目的目的就达到了。

Human Wheel
People on the move are like hamsters on a hamster wheel. Before they get on the wheel their purpose is either to earn money, or to be happy, or to live. But then, over time, running on the wheel becomes the purpose and meaning of their lives.
Oftentimes, the so-called social prosperity and development and some imaginary goal of happiness that we run after is a very abstract concept that cannot be concretized, it can never be achieved or reached, yet countless people squeeze themselves and objectify their lives for this concept.
If only there was a moment in life when someone felt as if they were stagnating and thought "maybe I could choose to get off this wheel or merry-go-round" - the purpose of the project would have been achieved.
