As an art student, I am interested in understanding the fundamental question of "Who am I?” I look different in a mirror than in a camera, and I want to explore what I really look like. Therefore, as I created the artwork, I touched my body to feel my natural shape and moved my wrist and arm to draw organic lines. I also felt my muscles when I stood. I used lines to represent the bones and red pigments to represent the muscles.
