Hello. I'm Iyan Ha.
This project is the creation of the novel, "The Old Man And The Sea", written by Ernest Hemingway.
I worked with Studio 2.0, a designer program.
I used about 1,300 bricks, & 1 minifigure.
"Why are we challenging ourselves?"
"Why do we move forward without being daunted by defeat?"
This novel by Ernest Hemingway tells the story of man's spirit of challenge who is undaunted by defeat.
My project is also like that.
In the distant seas of Cuba, a giant size of a marlin is caught fishing by an old fisherman, "Santiago."
The fish was 18 feet (5.5 meters) long and weighed 1,500 pounds (700 kilograms).
The old man continues to follow the marlin's lead even as he falls and injures himself in the boat.
The old man never gives up the marlin caught in the fishing rod.
On the third day, the old man overpowers the giant marlin that popped up to the surface. And ties it to the side of the boat.
But another difficulty begins.
The marlin's sniffing sharks chase the old man's boat.
The old man challenges the fight against the sharks.
Every time sharks rush in, the marlin's flesh gradually disappears.
But the old man never gives up.
The giant marlin caught when the boat returned to the coast was left with only its bones.
The old man enters the cabin house, falls asleep, and dreams of lions.
The misfortune behind the fight against the giant marlin and sharks does not mean the old man's defeat.
He was undefeated.
He went beyond his limits and accepted his fight with himself.
He showed how humans should behave.
This novel pioneered the literature of the 20th century.
It also opened new horizons in the world of modern literature.
Hemingway won the Pulitzer Prize and the Nobel Prize in Literature for his 1952 novel "The Old Man and the Sea."
I made a scene in the novel with Lego.
It is divided into three parts: the old man's boat / the marlin / and the sea.
And when these are combined, a diorama is completed.
It is a scene in the novel that depicts the old man trying not to lose to the marlin when the sun rises and the marlin jumps to the surface on the third day of the old man's fight with the marlin.
The image of the old man struggling is contained in it.
It looks as if it's fighting a giant fate.
The same questions again.
"Why are we challenging ourselves?"
"Why do we move forward without being daunted by defeat?"
The answers to these questions are the same as the old man's lines in the novel.
"But man is not made for defeat," he said. "A man can be destroyed but not defeated."
