A poignant piece of art. But I don't understand the 2 different clocks...why 2 different time?

In this piece, the right stair case represents failure in life, the left represents success. For everyone else, this is mainly based on career outcome only. But for me, they represent something of a difference, the stair cases represent the same, Left - success, Right - failure, but these including the times count for a medical condition which nearly cost me my life. (The times go hand in hand with the stair cases and what they represent).
When i was 10, i suffered a major Asthma, it started at around 11:30am marking the beginning of a possible ending to my life as i found out a young girl the same age was rushed in with the same problem, only she didnt make it. I was told later that if i had been taken in any later, i would of most likely died too. (marking potential failure in survival)
19:00 marks the time i was given the all clear in which i was able to leave a few hours later at around 11pm, but 7pm was the time i new i was going to be fine. (marking success in survival)
People find it hard to believe how i can remember the times, but its not something you forget easily, the feeling of ones entire body going numb, head becoming cloudy, tunnel vision as if everything was fading away, lose of limb control, rapid temperature increase, chest becoming tighter by the minute. Very freaky, 12 years have past and i still remember every second.
Thank you very much.

Wowwww........thank you for sharing. Now I understand clearly the clock/staircase and their significance. You're a fighter and you came out a champion.
Life is impermanent, we're actually dying as every second passes. Better make the most out of it.

Yea, i havent been on in ages. Getting a new camera, so it will be a while before anything new is up. Only, when there is something new, it will be better than whats already up.

Another favorite. Your detail in this surpasses even the other one. I LOVE the labyrinth movies and I myself have wanted to do a piece with a labyrinth in it. In this piece you really tied together the whole scene nicely. Also the details again are great!
