Without hope, there is no future. I dedicate this wall art to peace and to social art. The divider consists of four parts; each part represents different time periods. 1) Birth (1400BCE) - peaceful living leads to abundance, tranquility, and harmony, 2) Death (1055 BCE) - war, despair, and struggle, 3) Loneliness (636CE) - which leads to feelings of abandonment, hopelessness, and despair, 4) New Beginnings (1800's) - lead to anticipation, hope, and a future to which to look forward.
