Eternal Battle
$200.00
This work is inspired by the history of the barong dance, the eternal battle between good and evil. We, as humans, definitely have both of these traits or behaviors. Goodness is a positive thing, and evil is a negative thing; 1000 good things will disappear with one bad thing, and 1000 bad things will not disappear with one good thing. Do humans have 1000 virtues and 1000 vices? This will continue to be the opposite from any point of view; humans will not live with goodness alone, and humans will not live with only bad things, only traits that can be explained through antonyms. Can goodness be explained with synonyms? If interpreted using antonyms, it will continue to fight and will never be peaceful. Still, if it is interpreted using synonyms, it will be quiet, but that isn't easy to accept. Humans will try to cover up their bad things in front of others and emphasize their good things. This nature will be reconciled if humans accept their good and bad nature.
