He later earned an MA degree (2017) in the Moving Image pathway of sculpture from the Royal College of Art. Subsequently, he pursued a doctorate in Fine Art from the Ruskin School at the University of Oxford. His doctoral thesis, titled “Empty Garden: A Liminoid Journey to Nowhere in Somewhere” (2020), manifested as a 10-meter-long scroll, intermixing East Asian Garden aesthetics with existentialism, poetry, and autoethnographic research, offering a new theoretical perspective on liminal spaces.
