This striking work takes the viewer on a visual journey through the darkest abysses of the human soul. The black and white chess pieces and a faceless man holding Azrael's sword symbolize a confrontation between opposing forces such as good and evil, light and darkness, or cultural and racial struggles. The falling chess pieces represent inevitable struggles leading to downfall and loss, evoking a sense of tragedy and resistance while calling for reflection on human conflicts and the search for solutions.
