Honouring The Self, 2022

Medium: Concrete and Stoneware

Artwork and Concept description: 

Others may interpret the word "void" negatively, but in my opinion, it speaks to a quiet and tranquil emptiness.
My artwork, "Honouring The Self," serves as a daily reminder to me to value my own dignity. Self-respect is described as recognizing one's own opinions and beliefs, as well as embracing oneself for who one is. It also means having confidence in oneself and overcoming worries of rejection and inferiority. Being resilient allows you to recover from failure fast and utilize what you've learned to try again. By practicing self-respect, I would be able to maintain inner serenity in the midst of movement and commotion of life.
