The theme of our tableau is about the desperate measure people take during survival. We demonstrated this by showing the cannibalism in the story. Probably the most desperate measure Pi has to take. Not only has he had to give up his religious vegetarianism but now must consume members of his own species, once friends or people with consciousness. Parker pretends to eat Karthik with the unsettling expression on his face conveying the turn against natural order. Julia and I (Charly) turn on shock and disgust to show the way society views such horrific events.

The entire purpose of the book is to push the boundaries of how far and how much one would sacrifice for one’s own survival. It answers such questions as, “How much does he discard his beliefs, his identity, for his survival? How much is left after all this? At one point is it worth it? What part does he have to go against himself and lie to himself to process?”
