After Life

'After Life' symbolizes not just the concept of what lies beyond death but also the static, unchanging reality people face after major life transitions, like graduation. It encapsulates the confusion and fear associated with navigating life and work. employment, marriage, childbirth, entrepreneurship, and parental responsibilities—these challenges resemble waves that individuals must confront. Like fish seeking direction in the vast ocean, people strive to find their own path, only to often feel swept up in the collective current, ending up surrounded yet isolated in their journey.

There's a common dread of becoming just another face in the crowd, succumbing to life's disappointments, and losing control over one's destiny. The education system's focus on conformity—teaching individuals not to question or observe critically—renders many deaf, mute, and blind to the happenings of the world and their own potential. This leads to a dismissal of personal discomfort and dissatisfaction, convincing oneself that conforming is the 'best' choice. Yet, what truly is 'best'? As life progresses, there's a fear that creativity, uniqueness, and personal ideas will become overshadowed by societal expectations, leaving individuality to fade into obscurity.
