This piece comes straight from Tim’s heart. He’s sad and very worried, so he expressed it in this piece of art. The world is shown, depicting the forests, the oceans, eyes watching what’s happening. Fires and floodings – one side and eye charred, already burned – the eyes of the moon watching, shocked, worried, scared and sad. Absolutely mesmerizing!

The human and what our children are born into. (ta-na – Our children and grandchildren qwa-uuts)”
