A Delicate Balance

A Delicate Balance (Overall shot): A medium-large vertically oriented print displaying two individual panels amongst an orange zig-zag pattern background. The top panel (being larger of the two) contains an evolutional sequence that begins with organisms that then progress to more complex animals and finally ending with a human depiction. The bottom panel portrays a landscape scene with plants, animals, and humans that are connected by circles and lines which are reminiscent of molecular drawings.
