Paper Collages
 Let Them Hide-And-Seek:
 

 Artist Statement:

 Mature makeup products sharply

 contradict with the unspoilt innocent world
 of the young. They are a metaphor for
 the high expectations of young girls in an
 advanced society, which expects them to
 look prefectly beautiful. Some had sadly
 went under the knife or starved
 themselves just to fit in.
 
 Unrealistic unexpectations aside aside,
 let's just let our girls be comfortable
 in their own skin and enjoy their
 precious childhood now   ^ - ^
