The painting depicts a monumental profile of a blue face, carved as if from ice, out of which grows a complex world full of buildings, trees and mechanisms. Within it life pulses – fire, movement and light, symbolising the birth of consciousness. On the left, night and silence; on the right, heat and the energy of creation. It is a metaphor for the first spark of thought, the moment when, out of the mind's silence, an idea is born – and from it, a person's entire inner world.
