Free-weight
When I was a child, I often wanted to grab the attention of everyone else and also cared about what people think of me. I remember a teacher of mine has said I would fall into my own mental whirlpool if I care about how people think about me too much. I have been growing to the age of 23 with this whirlpool. I began to be willing to get rid of this whirlpool even though it brought me unique aesthetic perspectives, and let me know what I really want to work on and built me great qualities to work with. Since I was trapped by the whirlpool, I started to consider how long it is going to last and how would I take off those labels created by myself.
Thus I started to collect the impressions of mine from others including myself. I wish to shatter my negative concerns through this project and I wish people would not judge others easily because a small leak will sink a great ship.
