Artist's Description: Girl, this work is about how you can find freedom, become who you feel like you are. A girl at work becomes a bird, her friends fly next to her, who have lost their external appearance. I want to show with my work that in addition to appearance, there is something internal, something that is important and needs to be preserved, that perhaps does not appear externally and can only be known through a deeper conversation.
