Description: A safe space is a physical or metaphorical location where people feel comfortable with their social identities and are free of prejudice. Safe spaces can convey identity safety and enable people to be themselves; it inspired me that the space brings people to feel safety is a critical and unmissable point. Safety and Identity inspired me about beds and mirrors, and I brought all of them together to create this artwork. In addition, I think the feeling of safety is not an object but something intangible, so I tried to make some irregular shapes with UV resin and illuminated them with light to present unique shadows on the artwork to express the idea of intangibility.
