My artwork is inspired by the action of breathing. Literally, when you notice your breath, it won't go as the way you want, it will only go constant and steady when taking no notice of it. Symbolically, the portraiture with the windows opened in front of his chest and clouds floating out represents things that we do to impress someone. They're often curt, brusque and short-spoken. The upside down portrait, on the other hand, represents things that we do naturally without the purpose of showing off.
