Accompanying text“The cells are locked on the inside and the outside, which introduces a thought-provoking dichotomy. This locking mechanism introduces the notion of confinement, raising questions about whether one is being locked in by external forces, or if one is choosing to lock themselves in for their own protection. This duality serves as a metaphor for the complex dynamics of control, both self-imposed and imposed by external factors.”
