As an artist, I am intrigued by the paradoxical nature of rejection letters. They hold the power to crush dreams and fuel aspirations simultaneously. In this work, I aim to transform the initial feelings of disappointment into a sense of empowerment through artistic expression.
The semantic richness of this work lies in its ability to challenge the audience's perception of success and failure. It initiates a dialogue on the significance of social and economic class in determining access to opportunities and resources.
