The main objective for this artwork is to express how serious people this day rely on the technologies and being caught in the unreal cyber world. The conveniences of technology spread deep into every aspect of our life, from medical, education, communication, relationship, entertainment, etc until death.
The simple line art inside the ‘computer border’ clearly express how unreal and without the feeling of warmness technology brings us no matter how convenient it is. The world outside the ‘border’ (unreal cyber world) was painted in different style to create the opposite type of world which is more close to realistic world. The chain lock also indicate that most of us hardly live without any influences of technology, we are all locked to it!
Death is not shown here as it would mean that one will be free from the chain once you reach that moment of your life.

The artwork is conceptually based on mangroves. The intent was to praise the importance of mangroves to the habitat and all living creatures. I embellish the monotonous muddy mangroves with colours and thus changing its dull impression that people had to a more colourful and lively look.

有鉴于目前全世界都笼罩在恐袭的阴影下，暴力事件更是层出不穷，可谓人心惶惶。
女性在文化艺术方面的贡献已是毋庸置疑。以目前世界混乱的局势来看，女性在维护世界和平的角色更显重要。故此画的重点是“和平”！选择用手作呈现是因为手具有行动及实践的意义，而女性的手更是予人一种慈爱、温暖及安全的感觉。用拼凑的方式将所绘制的“手”黏贴一起代表结合各族群与阶层的女性努力宣扬及创造一个无暴力、各族文化共融的和平世界。背景的文字带有实证及讯息，亦代表每一只手在努力的背后所隐藏的意义。
看把！满是皱纹的手、受伤的手、天真纯洁的手、更多等待帮助及支暖的手. . . 伸出您那不惟艰难之手为世界和平出份力吧！
