Seasons of the Pregnant Uterus

The MRI of the gravid uterus shows pregnancy in the colors of the seasons. The pink represents the spring time, the green the summer, the brown the fall, and the white and black the winter. Life is a continual cycle and pregnancy goes through these same phases and cycles, of youth, through adulthood, until a new cycle, advanced in time starts.  The art piece has anatomical, physiological, and philosophical elements.
