A Blazing Rush, an Eternal Afterimage
“LIVE FAST DIE SLOW” is a declaration of the time spent living fiercely while maintaining one’s own sense of balance amid the fast-paced reality. Along with a paradoxical message that portrays pain and destruction as brightly blazing imagery, it conveys a strong will to keep moving forward without stopping, even on a road with no end in sight.
