"Self-love, defined as 'love of self' or 'regard for one's own happiness or advantage', has been conceptualized both as a basic human necessity and as a moral flaw, akin to vanity and selfishness, synonymous with amour-propre, conceitedness, egotism, narcissism, et al. However, throughout the centuries self-love has adopted a more positive connotation through pride parades, Self-Respect Movement, self-love protests, the hippie era, the modern feminist movement (3rd & 4th wave), as well as the increase in mental health awareness that promotes self-love as intrinsic to self-help and support groups working to prevent substance abuse and suicide." (quote from Wikipedia) The work was generated with "Dall-e 2" (an OpenAI software), but on top of the ai-generated image i then added further modifications made by me.
