Mahabharata: the Book of End
This piece of work attempts to revitalize the epic tradition in our fragmented world. By engaging modern western philosophical ideas, regarding the end of history, in this eastern form; written in English, by this man from China.
Yiwei Lu 陆一苇 (he/him) identifies himself not as an artist (艺术家), but a culture producer(文化工作者). He produces anachronistic literary pieces in search of the sublime across the East and the West; and he also produces historical theatrical pieces to critique the bourgeois melancholia rooted in his mind, as actor and playwright.
He used to study classics, psychoanalysis, literature, and theatre, but he recently sold his soul to capitalism by going into law school, in vain hope of buying it back one day with a company credit card or bitcoins. He now awaits a worldwide revolution to come and wash away his sins.
