The journey of human life has spanned thousands of years and continues to unfold to this day. This artwork interprets the evolution of human civilization over time. The vast oceans of our planet have played a vital role in the development of human evolution and remain a significant element in our shared history. As time progresses, life continues to change from one era to another. The rapid transformation of the world is a natural consequence of the universe moving forward as it is. As living and evolving beings, humans naturally follow the continuous flow of this transformation.

How beautiful it would be if we all lived our lives striving to become better human beings working together to create a world that is more comfortable, safe, and peaceful for every living creature.

The boat in this work is more than just a physical object it becomes a metaphor for inner journeys and personal transformation. The development of the world from prehistoric times to the modern era has occurred at an incredibly rapid pace. Humans play a crucial role in shaping the direction and face of the world. As thinking beings, humans possess the ability to create, develop, and drive change. The acceleration of technology and scientific knowledge has had a significant impact on daily life. If used wisely and focused on positive and peaceful purposes, these advancements can simplify life and improve the quality of human existence.

However, behind this progress also lie challenges. Therefore, it is important for us to continue cultivating awareness, responsibility, and human values so that technology and science remain tools for good , not the other way around.

Hosted in collaboration with Years of Culture, the residency promotes cultural exchange and creative dialogue between Qatar and Indonesia, featuring the shared values of craftsmanship, community and artistic innovation.
