Work Details
Inspired by Plato’s "Allegory of the Cave," this work re-examines the boundaries of our perceived reality.
The cave symbolizes the limits of human understanding. The fissures in its walls are "tears in the world"—gateways leading from our stable daily lives to the unknown.
Gazing into these rifts, the viewer is confronted with a fundamental question: "Is what we see the only truth?"
