About the project
To Those Who Are Destined is a visual development project created by Lena, exhibiting and debuting at Gradex 111.
Set in a world where individuals born are appointed permanent roles in society, To Those Who Are Destined is a tribute to a period of uncertain future. To those pursuing passions despite all odds, appreciating matters in life that are immense yet diminutive. And to those who feel stuck in place, consumed by routines yet holding on to their dreams. It is a collection of memoirs of those who challenge the view of what it means to pursue the unknown, aware of its consequences.
