The images appear decayed, mysterious and aged. Their small size draws the audience closer, inviting them to carefully examine the paintings individually through the magnifying glasses. This will open up a global conversation about female identity, symbolised by the vagina. The vagina is the most hidden subject. It carries a dark connotation when spoken of publicly. 

It is an everyday subject. But culturally there is a dark shameful aspect to the discussion. Society avoids discussing the most powerful yet vulnerable organ of a woman’s body. But the vagina is the most important organ for women. When the nakedness is exposed, they become naked vulnerable and fragile. Jin Zhi explores the through her symbolism the cultural bondage of the female body, familial generations. This is made more profound by the inclusion of her own portrait with the portraits of her ancestors, children and grandchild. This a profound celebration of womanhood. The retaking of ownership of the vagina, breaks the cultural chains of stigma and free their body. 

Bring the love and awareness through her art. She deeply believes that her art and autobiography is her personal and spiritual calling, her spiritual artistic journey is to use her work to heal others and to have a significant global conversation of cultural identity, family trauma and the country of her birth: China.
