We never get back our youth… The pulse of joy that beats in us at twenty becomes sluggish. Our limbs fail, our senses rot. We degenerate into hideous puppets, haunted by the memory of the passions of which we were too much afraid, and the exquisite temptations that we had not the courage to yield to.

You can’t do anything worse to me than what I’ve already done to myself.

we’re all playing a game of holier than thou

i’m so enlightened now. i used to not know what to hate about myself.

Sometimes we want what we want even if we know it’s going to kill us.

this is no way for gods to die.

my fatal flaw:

a morbid longing for the picteresque at all costs.

It is amazing how complete is the delusion that beauty is goodness.

well i guess im alive now

what am i going to do now

the pursuit of pure beauty is a trap

a fast track to bitterness and sorrow

there is no

exquisite beauty

without some

s t r a n g e n e s s

in

t h e

proportion

though we

travel

the

world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us, or we find it not

nothing

is beautiful

NAR/CIS/SUS © 2022 by Yoon Sung www.yoonsung.myportfolio.com During their teens, the artist struggled with anorexia nervosa; they spent this time cycling in and out of treatment, being forcibly hospitalized or threatened with conservatorships, and jumping from therapist to therapist. Their illness started with a simple concern about appearance and other’s perceptions that developed into an obsession with purity, religious morality, achievement through traditional channels and perceptions of these concepts, and somehow transcending the physical form and all its limitations.
