I chose this image from the exhibit as the image best demonstrate the theme of the exhibition. The woman relying on the opened window is old. However, from her facial expression, you could tell that she is smiling as she is satisfied with her life/the scenes she sees outside. The light reflected from her eyes brighten her entire facial expression as if there’s light behind her eyes. Her clothing is clean and roomy. Although she’s old, she is still “well” mentally and live positively.
