The transparent track, deformed from the human body, with chain symbolizes the influence and regulation imposed by external forces. These elements represent societal expectations that dictate behavior, both in childhood and adulthood. The hinges connecting the tracks enhance their flexibility, illustrating the adaptable yet confining nature of these standards. Additionally, the four metal rocks, which suspend the track, convey a sense of inescapability and perpetual motion, reinforcing the notion of being perpetually guided by external expectations.
