“Is my idea too conventional?”

My desire to create something truly unique entangles with a vague, persistent delusion that I might be someone special. Together, these create hesitation and doubt. The swelling mass of self-doubt holds me back. Eventually, an uncertainty, growing inside me, spreads like a parasite devouring its host. No matter how hard I try to shake it off, it follows me like a shadow, clinging to every act of creation. And maybe, this shadow is simply part of the brightness of making art. Through this work, I delve into a way to live with it. I hope this piece leads viewers to reflect on their own shadows.
