The world's balance is maintained by the existence of two (or more) complete opposites, such as sincerity & insincerity, majority & minority, sanity & insanity, order & chaos. As a result I am trying to visualize something that exists in the middle of between two (and more) things, such as contradiction, frustration, irony, manipulation, distortion.In this work, a theme was incongruity and congruity, and I was trying to visualize something ordeal and discomfort/odd feeling in my mind.
