The Dharma Wheel symbolizes the teachings of the Buddha; "Turning the Dharma Wheel" signifies propagating Buddhism and guiding sentient beings towards enlightenment. This artwork is deeply inspired by the turning of the Dharma Wheel, creating an immersive space for the audience to experience the dissolution of self-attachment.

In the artwork, the audience enters a circular room surrounded by mirrored walls, floors, and ceilings, creating an illusion filled with white clouds that reflect and intersect around them, evoking a surreal sensation. As they sit in the center of the room, lights, sounds, and the walls begin to awaken. Twenty-four movable walls start to change, altering the shape of the space. The infinite reflections of the self in the mirrors gradually dissolve into nothingness. It feels as though one is being transported to a realm beyond the mundane, where worldly achievements, fears, pressures, and material wealth all dissipate, ultimately reaching a state of egolessness and experiencing true inner peace and freedom.

法輪象徵佛陀的教法；「轉法輪」則寓意著宣揚佛法，引導眾生走向覺悟。本作品深受法輪「轉動」的啟發，創造出一個沉浸式的空間，讓觀眾體驗到自我的存在以及我執的消融。

作品中，觀眾將踏入一個被鏡面牆壁、地板和天花板包圍的圓形房間，形成一個充滿白色雲霧的幻境，倒影在四周相互交錯，營造出一種超脫現實的感受。坐在房間中心，光線、聲音和牆壁開始甦醒，24面可動牆壁隨之變化，改變空間的形態，原本鏡中反射無窮盡的自我倒影，逐漸消融於虛無之中。仿佛被帶入一個超越塵世的境界，人們的世俗成就、恐懼、壓力和物質財富都隨之煙消雲散，最終達到一種無我的境界，體驗到真正的內在平靜與自由。
