At the center of the piece, a group of children huddle together, wide-eyed with fear as they witness the violent riots that rage around them between police and tibetan monks, symbolizing the fight for ideas, freedom and nature protection. The figures in the midst of the dance are caught in a never-ending cycle of violence, perpetuated by the oppressive state that looms over them like a dark cloud. The brushstrokes are bold and expressive, capturing the chaos and turmoil of the scene. The colors are dark and muted, or fire, evoking a sense of dread, despair and chaos. The piece is a powerful commentary on the brutal realities of living under repression, and the innocent victims caught in the cross fire.
