# Project Description From Catching the Moon to Drinking Water Zhiyi Jin Summary Final work Zhiyi Jin (b. 2000, Zhejiang, China) is an artist with an MA in Design for Social Innovation and Sustainable Futures from the University of the Arts London, following earlier studies in Fashion and Accessories Design. Her practice grows from attentive observations of daily life and the belief that the vastness of the universe can be glimpsed through its smallest fragments.

College London College of Communication Course MA Design for Social Innovation and Sustainable Futures Graduation year 2025 In today’s culture of acceleration, we compress time through speed, yet fall into the same predicament revealed by the fable Catching the Moon in Water: a collective pursuit of shimmering illusions that leads to alienated perception and inner exhaustion. This project seeks to resist the linear discipline of time. It arises from an everyday realization: no matter how fast the world turns, we cannot drink water at double speed. We can only take it in, sip by sip, allowing the body vessel to receive time. Thus, the shift from catching to drinking becomes a perceptual fissure uncolonized by acceleration, a small ritual that reclaims bodily awareness and the present moment. Rather than critiquing the measurement of time, the project opens a gateway toward a deeper, fluid, and nonlinear consciousness.
