Unity, Strength as One

When one thinks of a powerful person, one may be reminded of an individual they admire. Or maybe even the hero in a fantasy series.

Let me tell you that behind every strong person, there are even more people supporting them.

This painting features a large swimming vortex of tuna, flowing as one. Tuna are helpless on their own, but together, they create a formidable barrier against predators. The fish swim in a circular current and seems to flow towards the water's surface. As the Sun's rays shine down the surface, the light bends and captures the silhouette of a shark.

The shark is daunted by the sheer volume and power of the tuna. They create a sensory overload which confuses the shark and allows the fish to avoid being eaten.

This natural phenomenon allows for tiny, defenseless fish to survive against the most dangerous predators.
