Spider and His Spider Web -Stuff They Don’t Want You to Know
The dichotomy in understanding nature has interested me for some time now. By dichotomy, I refer to the two-fold, and at times complex, meanings that appear in my mind while observing my surroundings. In my process, I experiment with the object of interest, its metaphors, and the relation between them. Even though the inferences I make may not be true, they are subject to my mental cognition. These ideas have given me an insight into understanding the world poetically.
The present work is a piece of fiction where there is metaphorical relationship between a spider and its web. Curious about the relation between the phenomenon of nature and the phenomenon of the rational world we live in. I tried to look deeper at the relationship between a spider, which can see various dimensions of an object with its multiple eyes, and its web, which can obscure our vision. This is similar to people who have information but cling to their own social and political position by using power to manipulate and confuse others, preventing them from getting a clear understanding of reality
