my contest entry to mailmeart.com
This entry explores the asian belief that the world once rested on top of a turtle. I drew inspiration from it, and tried to illustrate the effects of suggestive ‘pre-destiny’. I also tried to incorporate the irony in it- the blissful contentment that comes with everything predestined in life, and the chaos that comes with the continuous search for pouring meaning into identity.
