The surrealist and abstract style of my self-portrait is used as a tool for self-exploration to navigate my interests and express how the melding of my various passions forms who I am as a person. I capture the influence of multiple passions and their tensions and contradictions by harnessing the colourless inkpen style to juxtapose wildly differing multi-modal interests while blending them seamlessly through unconventional compositions with negative space and ambiguous lines. As the skier slides down the slope, the contours of the mountain gradually transform into water-like hair where sailboats race, and the gears, circuit boards, and mechanical forms blend, distort, and morph into the trees, snow, and water, in the same manner that I myself shuttle between these settings. Meanwhile, by placing modern mechanical parts such as gears, clocks, and tubes into the ancient art technique of printmaking, I explored the progression of human technology. Each element interlocking with ink—with precision meeting imperfection—symbolizes how innovation doesn’t erase tradition but evolves from it. Such compositions show how I find the intersection of creativity through art and activity, and logical thinking through engineering, science, and technology, revealing that creativity and craftsmanship have always been intertwined. I hope my creation builds a bridge between the traditional industry and the industry of the future, so the viewer can feel how the spirit of human craftsmanship moves from the past toward a more complex yet humanistic future.
