Intro
A 68-year-old self-portrait conceals a life journey of letting go and struggling. Having once been consumed by fame and fortune, losing touch with my true self, I now understand that "gaining is my fortune, losing is my fate." Yet, the past's obsessions and burdens are still difficult to shed. The expression in the painting is calm yet complicated, with a dim background, suggesting an unresolved inner turmoil. This is not a perfect portrait, but rather a sincere gaze into oneself.
