The artwork "Beyond the Numbers" portrays Super Mario resting wearily against a sack of blue numbers, symbols of the endless digital data we often chase—likes, followers, and shares. This piece sheds light on the toll of constant pursuit for online validation, reminding viewers of the importance of balance and genuine self-worth. Mario’s fatigue encourages us to pause and reflect on our own digital habits, guiding us to seek meaning beyond superficial metrics. The artwork calls for a return to authentic connections and inner fulfillment, prompting a reassessment of what truly brings value to our lives.
