Unknown: Rose

Through the use of a triangular rim that represents delta, [Unknown: rose] portrays the changes in life over time. The time “2006. 09. 21” written on the left belt is the date of my birth and the unknown time of the right belt shows the uncertainty of my life and when I will die. The burning ends of the belt symbolize that time is going towards an inevitable end. The stark contrast of black and white on the belts is used to highlight the clear distinction of birth and death while the grey colorings of the rose signify living organisms which are in the ambiguous grey between birth and death. 

0.05 mm and 0.3 mm pen were used to illustrate [Unknown: rose]. I have applied different fonts for the numbers and the letters. Hatching strokes were used for the leaves, rose, and the burning end of the belt, while pressure lines were applied for the belt and the letterings.
