A poem I once read was in my head when I was making this piece.

Regeneration

I look about

And see a decaying world,

Reflecting my thoughts

Inside.

But hope is born

From each dying emotion,

Rebuilt to keep me

Alive.

The world is constantly changing and effecting us in different ways, some good and some very bad. I look at this piece as the world transforming and left the area black with an unknown to see where this life we are living will regenerate next.
