This design was inspired by Right in Two by Tool. The core themes were free will, human division, the monolith from 2001: A Space Odyssey, and subtle references to the work of Alex Grey.
The central element is the two monkeys. At first glance they appear to oppose one another, but they eventually merge into a single form. That’s my interpretation of Right in Two. To me, the line “monkey killing monkey” isn’t just about conflict, but also about the illusion of separation. The two monkeys aren’t enemies; they’re different expressions of the same consciousness.
Standing between them is the monolith from 2001: A Space Odyssey. It symbolises human potential: the same consciousness that allows us to create also gives us the power to destroy.
Thanks, Kutay, for putting your trust in me!
