About

The Way of All Flesh beckons visitors to contemplate the ephemeral nature of existence, to gaze
into the mirror of mortality, and to recognise the universal embrace of life’s impermanence. This
exhibition is more than a collection of artefacts; it is a communion of minds, hearts, and flesh.

The exhibition promotes questions but promises no answers: it asks us to contemplate the fleeting
nature of life, the fragility of our mortal existence, and the universality of our journey toward the
inevitable. It is an invitation to introspection, a quiet moment of reckoning with the eternal mysteries
that bind us all.
