This piece portrays people walking toward danger while avoiding reality. With paper boats covering their heads, the figures lose sight and head toward a curtain painted with the sea. Behind it lies a large hole, unseen by them. Trusting the image as truth, they walk into risk, unaware. The work reflects how we often choose illusion over awareness, and how avoiding reality can quietly lead us into harm.
