This piece symbolizes many things from Animal Farm by George Orwell. As in how power disrupted the lives of the animals. Take the three pigs for example. All started out with pure hearts but the thought of all the power they could withhold put them into a battle against one another. Doing things they never would have imagined before.
The tree represents the growing of their society. The left half of this piece is symbolizing the time before the revolt with the gold colors. Animals dreamed of their freedom, and were still good. As the power became more of the three pigs there intensions changed. It was less about freedom for all, and more about control. Laws were broken, and many of the animals were deceived. The right side of the tree is withered to show the pigs becoming corrupted by power. The bird flying into the night sky is there to show animals becoming evil. A quote by William Pitt- “absolute power corrupts absolutely”, describes both my piece and Animal Farm.
