Production started in 2017, and exhibition of works started in 2018. Images of works such as colors are inspired by digital information on the Internet. The concept of a work created through one's own body is' having mass in the material world, 'and the weight (grams) of ink used in the work becomes the' title 'of the work. The act of the buyer directly cutting the art work and putting it on the familiar object is incorporated into the concept of the work as a kind of complicity between the artist and the viewer.
