The final painting in the series shows that the HIV protease enzymes have been 100% destroyed, a complete victory. The protease inhibiting drugs (blue dots) remain in the system, sentinels guarding against a return of the infection forever. In the first two paintings the edges of the canvass are painted black. In the final painting the edges are painted red, emphasizing the nature of the total victory. As with the first two paintings the background colors still represent the human body but in the final one they also resemble a glorious sunrise, symbolizing the dawn of a new day.
The three paintings will be displayed next to each other at the Positive Care Clinic and a plaque will be included giving an explanation similar to what I've done here in the blog
