Finally, after weeks of conceptualising and designing and drawing, my final ego up on the line!
Final composition
Bird + Japan = Me
Straightforwardness – Restrictions = Freedom
Determined x Delibrate/not giving up = Bamboo, a symbol of ultimate resistance
Planting my dream (letting the seedling grow) + Preserverance (enduring the harsh winter) = Full bloom (thats when i can bloom finally and shine)

There are so many other things that i would love to include in this project, but there are limits to what i can put. What I have done is just one of the many aspects. Prof Ina suggested putting kanji characters over each, and i tried with one ^^
This project has made me learnt so many things, both technical and about myself. I didn’t believe that i would be able to so it at first, but i did it.
Final installation:
