More
Wanting more than what is given and taken, seeing more than sea or sky, because more than what society expects, anything more than herself.
Cindy


The world on the horizon 

The words in the sky represent the ideal world, and the girl who has  the shackle on her leg is trapped into a world that is not idyllic for her. The water separates them and creates a barrier between the two.












Burden-free
The birds represent the feeling of freedom and peace. They also represent death (since they are the colour black). The sky is grey due to the overwhelming feeling of depression. The girl is covering her mouth because she is frightened about making another mistake.
