The fear of the unknown is an ancient and all-consuming power, a beast that causes chaos in this beautiful world. The duality of the human condition battles to both destroy and protect its sanity, something that can so easily shatter when faced with conflict

Fickle social structures, prior prejudice and naivety threaten the future. Maybe embracing the beauty of change found in the unknown can lessen the chaos
