Can you find the falling/flying figure dominating this artwork?
Look past the obvious figures.
The figure I'm talking about is placed subliminally in the work.
And perhaps this figure isn't falling at all.
Perhaps the figure is flying. Depends on how you view the canvas! - Neville ☺︎

This poem appears in the artwork...

                        "Standing at the chasm's
                        brink
                        If you lean forward
                        just slightly more
                        You will begin to fall
                        into the bottomless
                        inevitable pit
                        Then with fear
                        forgotten
                        Falling
                        Becomes
                        Flying"
                                    - Bill Paton
