Depicted a moment of meeting new friends in Canadian nature. The large, horned shell symbolizes my growing confidence, contrasting with the plain shell from when I first arrived.

“The second piece, Meeting New Friends, captures a moment of connection as I formed friendships in Canada. As international students, the three of us explored new environments and expressed ourselves through shared experiences like hiking. The large, horned shell symbolizes my growing confidence—standing in contrast to the plain shell that represented me in the first piece.”
