Through the exhibition, he and his friends want to show that people are starting to be alienated from the real world due to technological developments and made worse by the Covid-19 pandemic. “This side of alienation or alienation as individual and social human beings in the midst of the onslaught of technology is what we convey through our works. It can be said as a reflection and education material for all of us," he explained.
