About the Work
This artwork embodies the idea that the world we perceive as ‘reality’ is actually an illusion—a virtual image—and that mystery and beauty reside precisely at the boundary between reality and illusion. The ancient philosopher Plato described humans as prisoners confined in a cave, mistaking the shadows cast on the wall by the world of Ideas, illuminated by the sun’s rays, for reality. However, what truly matters is not the truth itself, but the hope people hold, their joy in living, their sorrows, and even their foolishness. For God embraces all humanity, enveloping everyone equally with His love.
