Malleable yet fragile, strong yet resilient—qualities that define both humans and pantyhose inspire my artistic exploration. Through the textures and colors of pantyhose, I abstractly visualize moments of introspection, dissecting fleeting emotions and occurrences akin to observing water droplets under a microscope. Each piece aims to transcend into three-dimensional forms, inviting viewers to explore depth through shifting perspectives, where light and shadow enhance the narrative of my interpretation.

Central to my artistic process is the transformation of pantyhose, a distinctly human-made material, into organic shapes. By imprinting this material with my hand, I not only convey personal emotions but also capture the essence of the water droplet metaphor I strive to evoke.
