Blind men talking about elephant

Hidden reality

Words can sometimes get us closer to shared experiences and different views of them and sometimes not, there is an old story about that: the story of the blind men and the elephant, I’ve been wanting to draw up this story for a while, here is my version

The story exist in many versions ( Wikipedia – Blind men and the elephant) but the basic plot is that a group of blind men is in a room with an elephant and try to figure out what it is by talking about it from their different perspectives.
