Evolution of Man and Machine

The first thing the viewer's eyes recognizes in the top center of this picture is the poster that illustrates the man's evolution from ape to Neanderthal. A powerful contrast is made with regards to man's evolution and the evolution of machines. This contrast is represented by a pile of man-made tools that have now become redundant and thrown away as industrial junk onto an outdated fire hydrant.

The color combination used in this depiction is interesting and peculiar. The creator has opted for dark brown shades, more likely to portray the antique character of the objects that feature in the painting. Thereby successfully conveying a powerful message on the connection between man evolution and the evolution of his creations.
