Medicine is a field with constant innovations and discoveries made by continually thinking outside of the box. In this piece, the ceiling forms a box that represents the limits that may be imposed by an unwillingness to step outside of one’s comfort zone or by being closed-minded. The gap revealing the sky and the peak of the bridge illustrates how challenging yourself to stay open-minded as well as to think creatively, and “outside of the box”, can help you discover and soar to new heights.
