This artwork features a unique being with three eyes, one of which wears the helmet of a Trojan soldier, seamlessly fused with a metal horse reminiscent of the legendary Trojan Horse. However, what sets this composition apart is the inclusion of chicken legs as a powerful symbol.
These chicken legs symbolize the human feet, often agents of pain and destruction throughout history.
The central figure holds a pocket watch, resolutely pointing at 7:00 AM, symbolizing the awakening of inner strength and the determination to confront one's deepest anxieties.
Inside the watch, there is an inscription that reflects my beliefs: "Redeem the time." This phrase serves as a reminder of the preciousness of each moment and the urgency to find spiritual peace and Eternal life.
Below, a graphical representation constructed from simple sticks tracks the fears conquered and those that still await resolution.
