Amoeba

Here we see not just an amoeba, but an evolved form of it. It has grown arms, legs, and even a brain. Under the water, the creature struggles to come out of its shell. It wants to rise toward the surface, toward light and freedom. But the effort feels strange, almost useless, almost absurd. The work captures both the power of evolution and the limits of it. It is a picture of hope mixed with failure, of life trying to go further than it can.
