'One monk fetches water to drink, two monks share the task, and three monks go thirsty.' The piece uses the parable of Three Monks to reflect the realities of modern urban life, exploring the dynamics of interpersonal relationships and the many possible outcomes that arise. It delves into themes such as order and chaos, breakdown and reconstruction, individuality and community, stability and division – examining the subtle psychological tensions and relational dynamics in various social contexts.
