"Rebirth" features shredded rejection letters in urn-like glass containers. This action of shredding and displaying the fragmented letters in an urn became cathartic and transformative. It challenges the stigma surrounding rejection, encouraging others to face critique with courage. Using the urn-like containers and the colored gold leaf elevates the shredded letters to a sacred significance of renewal and rebirth.
