Forbidden Love in a State of Emergency

This bench symbolises a love story during the Pandemic. The narrative arc that centred in a love triangle between the people (me), government (him), and democracy (her) has unfold into a multi-facetted bitter-sweet relationship.

Just like a tragedy that happened on this bench, the governing force is obstructing the people from sitting next to democracy.
