This illustration challenges the idea of how our quick-paced society conditions us to think fast is better, better must be faster.  When we accept this mentality, we refuse to savor the moment. All that a rush leaves behind is the absence of detail or a blurry memory of reality, two key components of living which I believe define us as a species. The ability to observe, recognize, capture. Yet, we are often left longing to transcend into the future or cling to the past because the present typically feels all too familiar.
