Oppression


My outlook isn't often negative. In this fractal, I interpret the spiral as a person tied down with weights. The blue pane to the top right is like a window to a better world for the poor spiral. Hints of green suggest the denied outdoors. The clinical techno feel suggests a clean, scientific kind of imprisonment. To me anyway. Maybe I should leave this kind of art to Guido ;-)

How about: the spiral symbolizes the straining arm working out in the gym. The blue is the skylight in the renovated warehouse that the weightlifter stares at while working out. The green is the fake grass added to make the gym look more classy and less like an old warehouse. The big row of weights on the bottom are the extra weights on the machine's stack that never get added because no one can lift all of them together. The title represents a fractal artist who hasn't been to the gym for years and feels guilty! Sorry, I couldn't resist.

No problem Tim, it's all in how you look at it! :-)
