This piece is meant to show the consequences of war through the use of symbolism. The bird represents the casualties of either side, alone in a foreign landscape. The use of the case in this piece is to show that whatever happens over there is brought home to us in one way or another. War affects and changes everyone, no matter how far from it we are.
