The heart of Morgana.
Concept: The changes taking place in Nature, the degradation of Earth and the nihilistic choices Man takes. Addressed with no emotions, void of compassion and rational (ultimately pragmatic for his future) mind: that's how these issues are. We, as in the final instance mortal beings, care not of Nature. Not seeing we steal our own heart, our own peace, the beauty that is still to come, we blindly infest the world with what eats it from the inside: Development (thank you, Hegel).
Background: It is clear that the heart of our future is reversing it's path. Maybe without the illusions of linear evolution we could realize our enslaved Beginning (the "Outside") is turning the back on us. And this process is only slightly visible, but "boy, oh boy" is it becoming exponentially "fluorescent".
Manipulation info: Back for a day, I've stitched these photos together and I hope you like them. The technique is common "among my ranks": layers, blendings, adjustment layers, brushing in of details. I probably should've uploaded the picture in a bigger format (the heart is prolly small), but I'm not really willing to release these for universal public usage;)
Take care, my friends!

Welcome back Domen... I like your interpretation of the concept and of course I totally agree with it. Devolopment is the path to the destruction of human sensibility to the umwelt and of its own emotions.
