"Burst of Freedom"

Mankind has a certain fascination with speed.

During the conquest of the Americas, wild ponies were brought in by the Conquistadors. Some of these escaped and became the real ?workhorse? engine that 'conquered' the West. Used by both the Indians and Europeans in decimating the land as it used to be.

In ?Burst of Freedom?, I use the metaphor of the ?Wild West? to symbolize man?s unstoppable and wild imagination.

An imagination that can give rise to both good and bad!
