Bundasak says about this artwork "This artwork is about women and beauty. I want to show the external values of people in this artwork and focus on what makes them look good. I portray women with clothes and colors instead of women's emotions to show their acceptance in an open society. Their recognition needs to be expressed in diverse contexts. I want to convey that they must be beautiful all the time, whether sitting or standing. Women and colors are easy to recognize with the various threads I use. As a woman artist, I like to reflect on the importance of the beauty of a diversity of clothes in today's society as a recognition of the women that wear them."
