Mukki Gill - JADED

What does it mean to please your highest self? To chase ambition so relentlessly that fulfillment turns to fatigue, for what once made you shine now wanes your light. JADED explores the weariness hidden in pursuit. In pleasing the highest self, there is a constant push and pull between passion and exhaustion - pushing forward with insatiable drive, yet pulling back by holding on too tight. The fire that fuels is the same one that burns out. Reaching for the next step, wondering if you’re rising or burning away. In bringing visions to life, they can feel so clear, but at times they linger too sharply until it stings; the burden of seeing so much and still not knowing what’s to come. The mouth, the greatest weapon. Words shape and define, feeding a relentless hunger to do more, to be more. Until it devours, ripping raw, will you realize that more has been bitten off than can be chewed. Like the moon in the morning - JADED, faded, almost gone. Yet, the sun rises again, and the tides will wash in.
