This is a work that breaks the tradition. I created the female reproductive organs in a very direct way, but the leaves and flowers grow from the inside. The female reproductive organs have always been used by many feminist artists to express the feminist movement. The main object, this is also the source of my inspiration. I use foliage and flowers to express the charm of women's bodies, but these leaves and flowers are also very fragile and vulnerable to infringement, so I want to show the respect and protection that women need in terms of sexuality.
