The repetitive pattern of people looking the same represent the world’s expectation. The person in the box tried to act the same, but still stands out hence the name Close Enough.
I really enjoy how this work uses colour to create emotion. You can tell how the central figure is feeling by looking at the grim greys and greens of the people surrounding them.
