I like how what’s in front of Karma vanishes when she turns around, including her shadow, and what’s behind vanishes when she turns back again. Love the subtle attention to such details. Such artistry.
And, there is no way to Prove it either way because, Just like the Cat, if Anyone Else perceives it, it becomes Reality..Unless, of course, the Other person Does Not Perceive It thereby creating a Parallel Reality..
If you place two humans back to back do they both poof? Who’s the “permanent” or real one? Only humans seem to have so much ego they can imagine they are the only reason the world exists. :)Oh and if the ‘something’ behind her is a bamboo plant it still possesses senses, they not be human or superhuman (Karmaic?) senses but, plants are aware of the world around them. So, if Karma looks away the bamboo is still sensing the world around it so even by her logic, it goes on existing.

That was uncalled for. Keep your snarky comments to yourself.

Gravity is a standing wave caused by atoms being crushed, the more atoms being crushed, the more gravity.

I like how the shadow disappeared when she was looking behind herself.

Kinda’ sounds a little like Plato’s Cave and the Shadows…

Ouch! Why’d you kick me in the shins?!
Thus I refute your solipsism.
Free the bamboo! Bamboo lives! Equality for bamboo! (Don’t be bamboozled….)

Gotta watch out for bamboo; it’s sneaky stuff — as are shadows.
Great work as always, Justin! It takes considerable creative talent to illustrate philosophy with art, and you have done it with amazing subtlety.

@Rista… the one who disappears is the one who isn’t me.
