Concept of the piece : The piece is reversible vertically (it can be as is with red at the bottom and green at the top, or upside down) and 2 time-settings at the bottom and the top are from Doomsday Clock. One in red (11:58) is the setting when it was the closest to the midnight, hence the closest to the worst state of the world (or can be seen as 'The End' in this piece) and one in green (11:43) was the farthest from the midnight and the earliest setting since the conception of the doomsday clock, hence the better direction for the human race and safer and greener state of the world. And dots which symolize individual members of the society form words together, words in green associated with more sustainable, greener, or words in positive connotation and something essentially bring better future. And they are together connected to the 'Green Clock' 11:43. Red dots forming red words are the ones associated with more dangerous, environmental harming, and something which brings dark future - 'less green' and against the idea of sustainability, and basically 'The End' to our society. And they are connected to (or shot from) the 'Red Clock' 11:58.
