My buddy Sam and I went to the Rubin Museum to see the Death is Not The End exhibit. Back in the day I really liked Tibetan Art (still do!) and I am glad NYC has a museum dedicated to art of the Himalayans. This was my third time to go to the Rubin and it was so nice to be back. Death Is Not the End is a cross-cultural exhibition that explores notions of death and afterlife through the art of Tibetan Buddhism and Christianity. During a time of great global turmoil, loss, and uncertainty, the exhibition invites contemplation of the universal human condition of impermanence and the desire to continue to exist (from the website). Death is a part of life-everything dies (well except maybe plastic) and I accept it, but I also wonder is there anything afterwards? Do I want to keep going? After this life, I am a bit tired of it all. Do I want to be a part of something again? I am not sure. I really like resting and being at peace. Here are a couple of photos from the exhibit. But it was awesome to see Sam and get bubble tea afterwards. I like the last photo that explains a little bit about the structure of the art.
