Theme: Metamorphosis

This event occurred on
April 1, 2023
Kochi, Kerala
India

Every triumph is a tale of constant adaption, revision and change. Progress is impossible without change, which in turn leads us through the path of evolution to what we make of ourselves down the road.

Our way of perception, here at MEC does not go with the enormous hype that the world gives to the destination and all that it brings. While success is cardinal, it's the beauty of the journey that should be celebrated. To give an eye for detail to every change around us is to embrace the metamorphosis.

While we are at it, let’s dance to the beats of changes and blow out of the bubble, embracing the little episodes along the way!
