I am obsessed with observing and thinking about the behaviors of people in daily life and the motivations behind them."Big Game" is a presentation and response to the questions raised during my thinking. 'Big Game' asks questions about how invisible rules in modern society shape and influence people's perceptions and behaviors, involving in impact of technology, monotonous daily routine, common sense, social norm, fanaticism about certain things, futile effort, and insurmountable distances between people.

Every time I think about the relationship between the running of the world and individual existence, I place myself in the position of the spectator, and I am astonished by the precise repetitive life routine; neither early nor late. Everything seems perfectly calculated, like a game. Is the world we exist in a game? If so, who creates the game and manipulates us, such that we are willing to obey the rules? In a computer game we accomplish missions which are different from real life by manipulating the virtual figure - the virtual figure being a projection of ourselves. Human beings do similar daily routines generation after generation. This immortal procession is as epic as it is great; full of hope and desperation. I am led to wonder, in real life then, are we being projected? Who is manipulating us and getting the satisfaction?
