The World was the first drawing Edwards ever did and is one of his personal favorites. Created when he was only 17 years old, this piece represents a young Edwards being outside looking in. This piece was influenced by the era and Edwards being raised in the 70s. Influences included nature, birth, death, religion, music, riots, protests, Vietnam, MLK, hippies, parties, lust, greed, art, war, loneliness and love.
The World drawing contains a great deal of symbolism within the piece. Puppet masters with their puppets, the world of art, gluttony, beauty, sado masochism, the progress of time, and purity.
