I wanted to provide irony as pursuing a beauty based on explosion. However, current work 'Explosion No.12' is a bit different. The beauty is vanishing. While previous works were led to be pretty, current one is expressed to access to my original existence. 

I'm revealing my violent tendency, which I have rejected to show to others. 

I'm seeing that my thoughts and views are fallen into burning fires. 

I don't afraid inside yet I'm more excited.
