Rational of the Work

With this work I urge the people to view the world from a different perspective. Curious, attentive and silent. Are we able to comprehend and feel the diversity and options of our existence? The observer deals with the idea of life and other stages, passing through, and something in between. We are always in a different stage of life or death. Each moment is unique and so are we, because each passing moment influences our perceptions and perspectives. The burden of history influences our view, so that we cannot look at anything without subconsciously referring to the past. Our perceptions are dictated by our human record and what we have experienced in the past. With this work I want to counter act the peoples way of thinking.
