‘Understanding oneself’ is a symbolic and introspective artwork that translates to “He does not compete, hence no one under Heaven can compete with him” which symbolizes a nonchalant attitude in life when we face challenges and competition while being resilient.

As the duck drifts away from the leaf, it shows its ability to detach itself from issues and competition, while remaining resilient.
