I have always enjoyed twisting things. For instance, heating iron until it becomes red-hot and then twisting it while it's soft creates beautiful spirals. I explore this concept of reversed structure in the spiral, replacing it with the notion of "the other side of thinness," and delve into that uncertain world.

"My First Distance" (created in 2023) expressed something akin to "salvation" beyond the sacrifices of the individual and the public.
