“Fear is only as deep as the mind allows.” — Japanese Proverb
The artist included in the work the story of her own hero’s journey - a collective hero of people living in war or challenging times. The hero always goes to the light, trying to escape and survive, to find a place of fulfillment. His path lies through fear which repeatedly pulls him out of the chosen route. The hero firmly believes in the flame of his power to overcome the darkness, but memories of fear diffuse to his body and dissipates his energy. Under the influence of fear, our desires of the soul can roll back to basic instincts. And there is a threat that fear will win. An international team created the artwork, and through the dancing, sound, light, and visual art delivers the idea of Joy and hope, which the yellow color symbolizes.
