"I do repent; but heaven hath pleas'd it so To punish me with this, and this with me, That I must be their scourge and minister. I will bestow him, and will answer well The death I gave him. So again good night. I must be cruel only to be kind. Thus bad begins and worse remains behind." --Hamlet from "Hamlet" Act 3, scene 4, 173–179

ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Together with other two panels of the same triptych, this piece indicate an unstable position of the so called "common man" of today. He/she is in an awkward position to choose between countless possibility of the digital era solutions. The choice is impossible, so the common man of today spend his days in illusions of his/her own value. Ascension can preserve his individuality which is an irony, but it can also be an illustration of his position inside digital culture as unstable and impossible as well.
