This artwork is tells about how someone change themselves from good to bad. These two images are self-portraits of the artist who reflect himself to a youth culture in his surrounded area nowadays. Punk is the metaphor for the negative element that influence the youth. The black and white portrait is the original appearance, and the colored portrait is the real-time appearance. He totally changes from it appearance and attitude. Although he turned himself into Punk, he still a Malay and a Muslim. But, Malay and Islamic lifestyle already get forgotten. The background also shows the changes between the bright colors to dark.
