| dc.description.abstract | Currently, society is filled with competition, where one must conform to
the societal norms and standards, often suppressing their true selves. At times, one
may choose to mask their emotions, behaving as if unaware or inexperienced, seeking
freedom of expression both in thought and action. This raw expression serves as a
remedy for the stress and pressure of navigating adult life amidst a plethor a of
experiences and learning journeys.
For adults burdened by societal expectations, embracing a childlike state
becomes essential for mental relief. Releasingpent - up emotions freely, akin to a
child, offers solace and liberation. From these concepts, I delved into Taoist
philosophy, exploring the harmony between childhood and adulthood. Studying
artworks reflecting this harmony in form and technique, I synthesized and analyzed
the data, employing sculptural craftsmanship. Using contrasting materials symbolizing
childhood softness and adult strength, I wove crocheted textures, reminiscent of
childhood freedom in thought and creation. Incorporating elemental principles, I
sculpted forms to express both states, seamlessly merging childhood essence to
signify holistic healing and mental well-being in the present. | en_US |
