About the artwork

This work reflects moments when one longs to disappear with the rain—to seep into the earth without a trace, to dissolve into nature, leaving behind exhaustion, pain, and the weight of one’s own existence. Here, rain is more than a natural phenomenon; it becomes a space in which one can lose oneself, perhaps only to be found again.
