… A clock as a metaphor of time marks the beginning of a cathartic sequence.
… values, knowledge, participation and the environment as the visible mechanisms of an ancient clock, correlated and perfectly synchronised with each other, and like the cogs of a functioning mechanism they stand to support the future of the young.
So it is that the face of the youth, now a man, made strong and optimistic by the knowledge he has acquired, looks to the future and his goals, represented here by the star and the horizon – he is pensive and at once serene, because he is certain he can achieve them.
The water-sea element, rendered with two slight waves, is the ideal environment in which we would all like to lose ourselves, in an enlightened time dimension that transcends reality.
