About the Artwork:

To shed, to reborn, to leave all those ghosts and monsters behind. Committing the act of shedding without the anxious haste and the nervous desire to “leave it all behind”. It’s still there, those ghosts still might poke their heads in once in a while; yet we feel them and welcome them as old mementos of past pains.
