The use of line

I attended a meeting the other evening around the topic Art and Politics.

There'll always be bigger fish to fry

I thought this meant, if something you wanted or desired doesn't come to pass, then one has to wait for the next thing. Might not mean this after all, but if sentences that actually bear no direct connection to an 'idea' can mean one thing, then maybe it can mean something entirely different too. Who decides what something means? So Idioms aside, here is my latest artwork. I quite like this one. It's bold, strong forms and colours and has alot of movement. The folded person, expresses a moment of disappointment, the loss of something desired. But behind is a smaller fish, he has managed to gain something. It belongs to him/her as it stays confined. He sits on an outcrop, perilous and irregular in shape. Nothing is straightforward. The fish is jubilant that he gets to live another day, a tear of gratitude falls from his open eye. He breathes a sigh of relief and moves towards the light.
