In this project, I use two-layered imagery to create a multidimensional visual experience. The surface is composed of rough plexiglass with crystals, acrylic paint are being used to create an image of an oversized heart. Beneath this layer, the second dimension adds depth, where a colorful LED panel illuminates the subject, creating a dynamic interplay between surface beauty and underlying meaning.

I believe our century has become obsessed with glamour and brand recognition, often overlooking the urgent global crises that will shape the next era. The sparkling crystals on the surface symbolize this fixation on vanity, while the three-dimensional structure, housing internal lights, represents the deeper realities we often choose to ignore. The heat generated from within the piece mirrors the mounting pressure on our environment, a warning of what happens when we neglect the balance of nature.

To sustain ecological harmony in the 21st century, I believe we must collectively acknowledge our impact—transcending borders and politics to protect our forests, air, and water. Through my work, I strive to bridge the connection between the human heart and the heart of the Earth, urging a greater sense of environmental consciousness.
