In this kingdom, colors rule. Walking with fingers on the body, you come across the border, one small step - and you have already stepped from the sand to the black soil. Over time, the soil ratio on the planet changes and you become a spectator of how unique the nature of the body is.
Vitiligo is a disease that causes psychological discomfort. Many people are ashamed of her and stop loving themselves. However, this is the most beautiful disease that our body can be exposed to.
Combination of different colors in one area - we see this often in nature.
As an artist, I want to say that people with this disease are wonderful and should not be ashamed of themselves.
Artwork for the "Terra Our Own" series. The parallels between our own body and the body of the planet we inhabit is what is the concept of this series.
