If you just breath to live- it shouldn't be called as life; you need to feel sunshine,
freedom, little flower, even the charm of darkness, and the beauty that is trapped in
somewhere. We often can’t find the real beauty of nature because we are too busy trying to
create it. To me, the beauty of our existence is best shown when it’s mixed with nature
and the surroundings. I find this blend much more stronger than when they are separated
and this body of work is a portrayal of how I see this sublime energy. Landscape and
colorfulness attract me; and that’s what I emphasized in my work. I have shown the colors
in nature where my subject is blended together with this charm.
