This story, it is strange and peculiar.

Although stories and statues are old and stationary, the past always has an anchor, and by looking at them, we reinterpret them with new conditions and create a change within ourselves. This shows that history is alive in the present, and the past is alive as we summon its spirit by looking at it, and it moves us forward. This spirit is the same one that comes to life when an artist creates a work, the same one that a poet brings to life with words. These are the unique results of those individuals, and the essence that we communicate with their creations after they are gone infiltrates us and comes to life. This vitality that is created by staying alive is indicative of incompleteness, which continues to evolve in the course of history.
Statues are not just representations of characters, but rather an exploration of human characteristics. They are like a mirror for us, and the characters in this story are our own qualities that have been recorded in works of art with skill and artistry to teach us wisdom and lessons, in the hope that something will be removed from us or added to us. It is a tale of our foolishness, hypocrisy, deceit, greed, and this display of characters freezes them in an eternal dance of hunter and prey, hunter and prey that I am!
