From the above, The dependence was mentioned. It is an element of completeness in the cycle of nature, like rain caused by small water droplets, float against the heat and humidity in the air then a condensation reaction occurs forming water droplets that fell into the rain to moisture to nourish life on land. Seeds, saplings and small flowers grow into a big tree with beautiful blossoms. I saw the beauty of interdependence in nature where things cannot be alone therefore used as inspiration for creating the ceramic sculptures by the nature, lines of the rain, flower forms, The colors of rainbow and the surface of the land that become the main form of this creation to express an impression the dependence in the nature and It is the creation of new form according to my uniqueness
