The Deaf or Dead based on a true story exemplifies a gift in disguise for any so-called misfortune and a heart-penetrating tragedy in disguise for a so-seemed fortune.
My work explores cultured perceptions of how humans perceive a specific angle out of possible multiple facets. It looks at the causes and effects (Butterfly effect) of how things connect events of the past to the future. The perceptions of events are colored, whether they were once thought to be wonderful or disastrous and later turned to be disastrous or fortunate in retrospect, depending on which time they are perceived from.
