- There were several moments I recall. One moment was when I was in primary school and teacher saw me painting and she liked what I was doing so much that she asked to come forward; another moment was before studying at the School of arts, I had enrolled in Graphic design and one professor told me that I better study art because my skill to make it concise was not that strong, I was too subjective instead, he thought, I think he was right. After that, once in the university, I realized how fluent my daily working was, my handcraft. I had an opportunity to do a solo show and the conglomerate of artists appreciated my work.
