For the self-portrait of my midterm project, I bring the idea from Frida Kahlo. the girl in the painting was wearing a skull mask which presents for celebrate death instead of mourned. The yellow blossom in her hands which resembles the tagete bloom that Mexicans put on graves at the "Day of the Dead" festival. Although the masks are symbols or hint for the cruelty of the girl's destiny, in my mind, it shows the toughness and courage of the girl to face the negative things in her life. Finally, Darkness will pass and dawn will come.
