This work is an expression of the phenomenon of vitiligo, which is unfamiliar to me, appearing and disappearing irregularly and repeatedly. Unfamiliar feelings come irregularly and embarrass me. Vitiligo-1(2022) shows a shameful skin disease that is always hidden. As soon as the light is turned on, traces of vitiligo are seen and when the light is turned off, it is just a biomorphic form. The installed lights flash irregularly. I got inspired by the repeated on and off lights in my rooms, which appear and disappear. Using silicone, because it is similar to human skin, and pouring on the dome and casting it. Depending on the amount of pouring and overlapping, it can be seen as various transparency of silicone.
