Drawn from the inspiration of Jeremiah 19, where the prophet conveys God’s judgment on the land by smashing a clay pot because of the people’s resistance to change, this mural playfully juxtaposes ancient warnings with our contemporary era’s reluctance to make substantial changes in response to current global crisis.

Interestingly, the original intention was to depict the pot as broken, symbolising the consequences of resistance. However, a complication arose when some elderly, more superstitious residents expressed concerns that the image of a broken pot might bring them bad luck. Consequently, the pot had to be repainted at a later stage to address these concerns.
