這些作品是我對人類努力的本性以及其代表象徵所做的觀察。達文西在他的飛行機器裡所用的翅膀，被用來當做這種努力的象徵，同時結合了人類的造型，而人類的造型也代表了這種努力的象徵。這些作品還包括了一些畫像，這些畫像記錄著畫家一生中的一些關係，而畫家的創作力跟這些關係則是息息相關的。

An investigation into the nature and representation of human endeavor is made. Leonardo da Vinci’s wing from one of his flying machines is appropriated to serve as the iconic symbol for such endeavor, and human figures are integrated with the same as allegorical expressions of endeavor. Several portraits are also included as records of the fundamental relationships of the artist’s life and upon which the artist’s creative activity depend.
