Week 12 - Series 9


The picture shown is the capturing of his titled "Rebirth". When a person has gone throuh a change it can be compared to child pregnancy. Both beautiful situations where the shaping of a humans life is of the greatest importance, but at the same time both can be an agonizing process. In changing ones life, time mus be taken to reminisce over the current past events. There has to be an understanding that we have honestly learned from these situations in a positive way. If not, then the whole process has to begin again due to the lack of understanding or matured wisdom that is given with the responsibility of change. So he is seen in the stomach of a woman, who is portrayed to be life. The beautiful moment in life when it seems time stops; where you can catch your breath to think. In this piece, is where the use of the philosophical figure "The Thinker" comes into play. In this moment in life, the greatest ability man has is used to decide what sort of man he shall be. Change is not solely based on what we go through, but in the end what do we ultimately decide to become. Do we choose to be a greater being fashioned from the fires of life or do we seek to be stagnant allowing the fire to destroy our will of any hope for the better?
