For us humans, the universe and the sea are unknown areas that we want to explore.
Exploration And Unknow combines the planet and ocean. I think the combination of the two will produce a different visual experience. In addition, I put the whole into a photo frame, this is to show that our knowledge and understanding of the universe and the ocean are still very shallow, and the parts are just like being framed in this photo frame.
In the Exploration And Unknow, I want to be a “grower”, I plant flowers on the most central planet. In my imagination, I hope that our planet is not covered by all kinds of high-rise buildings and factory houses, but a piece of flower fields that can be seen, giving hope for life and a bright future.
There is an astronaut holding the box outside the box, as if looking at the planet in the box. This means that when facing the universe and the ocean, people seem to only see a part of the newly discovered places, and more things are actually outside this frame. The unknown around the astronauts see our real environment, which shows that everything in reality seems to be familiar to us. However, there are actually some unknown aspects. They may be hidden in the invisible air, or they are hundreds of millions of miles away.
