RE: The Last Supper
Da Vinci
The letter describes my evolving understanding of "The Last Supper" painting, reflecting on my initial perceptions and how those evolved over time. This narrative captures my emotional and cognitive journey in interpreting the artwork.
Additionally, the letter explores broader themes related to gender representation, historical interpretations, and potential future debates. These aspects contribute to a narrative beyond a simple painting observation and delve into the broader user experience—how the artwork and its interpretations impact my understanding of art, history, and societal issues.
In the letter's context, I engage with Da Vinci's story and art; the narrative reflects my experience, thoughts, and reflections. This aligns with the essence of a UX story, which is to capture and understand the user's journey and perspective.
"The Magnificent Supper" struck me as a group of apostles, which was my initial perception as a child; it didn't click to me that there might be a lady among the teachers. I was shaped that way by teachers who chose simplicity and overlooked the possibility of a lady among them.
Then came the book, "Da Vinci Code," talking about the possibility of a lady. Whether she is there or not, this oversight made me ponder the representation of women in today's world. It reflects how women still need to be more present among the men in the top management.
Considering gender disparities today, I realized that there might be others left behind in various aspects of life beyond women. This reflection made me contemplate the ongoing debates around pronouns, particularly the current discussions about yours.
You talked about generations to come in a single painting and gender issues. If studied deeply, more forthcoming issues might arise, helping us design a better inclusive world for the future.
I continue to read your story and hope to gain much more than you thought your life ahead of its times would teach.
