The work Oneness is inspired by the hymns of soma in the ancient Indian sacred book Rig Veda. Soma refers to both the ritual drink and the deity. The hymns hails soma as running waters, the infant, master of rivers and a king. It moves swiftly like a stallion and roars like thunder. Its amber juice brings light of sun; its exhilarating sweetness inspires joy.
Reading the hymns, the artist imagines the scene of raindrops hurtling across the water. Fevered rhythm grows within the calm interior. Soma is a waterdrop and a cosmos.
这件作品的灵感来源于印度《梨俱吠陀》对神圣的液体苏摩（soma）的颂歌，它亦被认为是无上的神祗。赞歌称颂他为水滴，是婴儿，是河流的主人和国王。他疾行如骏马，他嘶吼如雷鸣。他的黄色汁液带来了太阳的光辉，他醉人香甜使人迷狂。
阅读这些赞歌时仿佛看到疾驰的雨滴划过水面，激烈的韵律于平静的内部滋生、蔓延。苏摩（soma）是一滴水滴，也是一个宇宙。
