Original artwork description:

In this tender portrait, I sought to capture the essence of childhood innocence through the image of a young girl. Depicted from the back, she stands with a sense of calm confidence, her figure framed by two playful pigtails that she holds in her hands. The stage is a celebration of the simplicity and purity of youth.

The decision to depict a girl from the back, with an invisible face, adds a touch of versatility, inviting viewers to recall their own memories of childhood. The act of holding her pigtails with her hands becomes a subtle gesture of self-awareness and connection to the fleeting moments of youth.
