'Because things don’t appear to be the known thing; they aren’t what they seemed to be neither will they become what they might appear to become.'

Things might look a bit disorientating in this picture. Who’s going where? All move and get blocked. To unblock, one needs movement.
But where does movement occur? When there is space. And is the suggestion of space not primarily evoked by the idea of chaos?
Back to the picture above. All were moving to a point that ultimately leads into an impasse. ‘The road’ no longer exists, so to speak. Symbolically, this image reflects the Taoist notion that the essence of life consists in never stopping the flow, for no point will ever reward us.
Then perhaps chaos is chaotic only by a misconception about space?
