The rise of individualism has meant the demise of institutions. Here you see a central figure of an abstract lady with her back to what could be half a menorah with an upside-down flame. Instead of heeding the truths of her ancient traditions, she gazes over to a large boisterous figure on the right who seems to be shouting mis-truths and lies. In between is their upside down child - a victim of our time as he is brought up with values far different than what our for-fathers intended.

The meaning of this piece only came to me after it was complete. In essence, this was a study of form and balance and the overall possibilities inherent in creating art from melted plastic bags.
