Dualism

A visual representation of the mind and body existing as two separate things — working in tandem, influencing each other.

It is impossible to observe every facet of someone at once, or to understand another person, or a situation in its entirety. There always will be another side to the story beyond what we see. Our thoughts combine with what we learn and experience to inform our ever-changing consciousness, inner awareness, and perceived reality. Things appear a certain way to us in the moment, but nothing in the world stays the same forever.

The human experience is most important to the work, allowing for everyone to see something different.
