As one grows older, one matures and begins to see more of what life truly is. This picture is intended to capture the idea that everyone has a past, and every past a story. The locks represent these stories and the keys the people. While some stories may continue, others may end. Ofcourse, the locks will remain locks even if the keys were to be lost.
This picture was inspired on the following quote:
"A man who is of 'sound mind' is one who keeps the inner madman under lock and key"
-Paul Valery
