Amoebas Realm:  Mirror Series

Integration

Every integration begins with an experiment.

  • The Mirror Series marks a turning point in the evolution of the Amoebas Realm civilization. Following periods of survival and containment, these works represent the first attempts to integrate giant amoebas into everyday life. No longer viewed solely as threats, they become subjects of study, adaptation, and experimentation.

    Inspired by humanity's continual search for knowledge and progress, the series explores the moment when fear gives way to curiosity. The amoebas are not yet fully understood, but their potential begins to be explored through practical and cultural applications.

    These works reflect a transitional phase in which a civilization starts redefining its relationship with the unknown, transforming what was once feared into something that may eventually become familiar.

  • Logbook of an Amoebist No. 77

    “It’s been a few months since I began under the Master.

    He’s not exactly trying to pass down his knowledge,

    so I decided to begin my own experiments based on what I’ve observed.

    After several attempts, I used a relic from the past—

    I realized a few days ago that the assimilation between older relics

    (the one brought to me by a digger) and a Sils is easier to control.

    Last night, I cultivated a Sils that now resembles the night sky.

    We Amoebists believe they take on this color

    to lure prey more easily into the shadow realm…

    It was a long process.

    I had to let it grow slowly, patiently.

    Once it reached the proper size,

    I sealed it using one of my forged rods—crafted especially for this purpose.

    There’s still some discoloration around the sealing rod,

    but I consider it a success.

    I hope the Master will praise me for it…”

  • Logbook of an Amoebist No. 263

    “The 1000th night. I record this log as an update on my latest studies under the guidance of the Amoebist Master.

    These past days have brought many lessons and failures... A few small successes have kept alive my desire to understand these entities — I’m likely too stubborn to give up.

    My most recent experiment involved a Sil from the arid lands. I traveled for 27 nights to retrieve this specimen, which I’ve once again managed to grow.

    Lesson 1: Given the increasingly hostile environment, I must consider stronger protection for my next expedition (see Log No.251). A more experienced guide may also be advisable.

    Lesson 2: Better travel shielding is essential — the sample collected quickly changed color under the temporary seal.

    As for the experiment itself: I allowed the Sil to develop around the same reflective material found among the ancestors’ ruins. The temporary seal expanded in a uniform shape, and once growth had stabilized, the final sealing layer was applied.

    Surprisingly, no discoloration occurred at the final seal. I will explore this further in upcoming experiments.”
