I was a ballet dancer for 8 years but an acute inflammation of the appendix alas abruptly interrupted my career as a ballet dancer. This painting of mine called "INTROSPECTION" depicts my feet painted in the original with the abstract figure of my ballet dancer dress that was cut by the scissors of the operation and therefore my career suddenly cut short by this event. But then the butterflies above and the thousand amazing colors represent my willpower, never giving up in front of difficult moments and my rebirth of my inner being, stronger than before. Just as the caterpillar after a long metamorphosis becomes a butterfly - the most graceful, delicate, wonderful being that symbolizes rebirth.
