This piece unifies the grace within the human body with the vibrant beauty nature withholds. The nakedness of the human torso, rendered in grayscale, represents the raw beauty of the human body. The vivid lilies contrast against the muted tones of the torso, signifying the elegance within nature. This presence of the human body and flowers helps bring together organic beauty from both parts of the world. The absence of the head in the figure helps fuse together the delicacy of the entire piece. Lilies coming out of the human torso convey the idea that beauty is free flowing through all living forms.

Creativity comes in various forms and can be expressed in various forms as well. To me, I have always expressed my creativity through drawing, painting, etc. It allows me to take every image or dream I see in my head and transform it into reality.
