Evolution

As a species, we are at a critical point in our evolution. We are facing a juggernaut of obstacles that may prevent us from continuing our growth process. Pollution and violence among other problems are threatening to stop us in our tracks. Pollution is represented in this piece with cigarette smoking and violence as a cowboy. Inspired by the classic chart of man’s evolution from monkey to man through different stages, I place current man in the center of the stage. If we can get past our polluting and violent ways, man may continue to evolve into a species of enlightened beings.
