The Puzzle of Consciousness depicts the mind as a glowing, intangible force shining through the physical body that contains it. The figure’s head breaks apart into floating puzzle pieces, revealing light and fragments of a face beneath — suggesting that consciousness is never fully visible or complete.
The detailed clothing and scientific instruments highlight the contrast between the solid, material world and the elusive nature of thought and awareness. The drawing reflects on how something as mysterious as the mind can feel both trapped inside us and endlessly expansive, always slipping beyond what we can fully understand.
