An Observation made within Sam Spratt's "IX. The Monument Game" - Artists often utilise self-portraits to convey thoughts, emotions, and identity.

In "The Monument Game,"
Sam’s inclusion of himself and Rachel suggests we're all observers to the unfolding chaos. Also shown by other bystanders taking pictures, observing, and casually mingling at the edges.

Yet, Sam and Rachel want to plunge deeper into the chaos, embracing active participation. Sam becomes the conduit, embodying boundless enthusiasm and fascination, proving that he is the ideal medium for this epic.
