Praise & Blame

This work is part of a series of four GIF animations about the eight Dharmas commissioned by Absurdeity.

The eight worldly Dharmas, also known as the eight worldly preoccupations, are a set of common human experiences that can lead to suffering if not understood and addressed properly. They are typically presented in pairs of opposites: gain and loss, fame and disrepute, praise and blame, and pleasure and pain.

A wheel can go in two directions, but not at the same time. Each GIF animation shows two beings engaging in an eternal play.
