The painting's vibrant, interconnected shapes and colors can metaphorize how life’s challenges can transform into opportunities.

We need to be optimistic. We need to tell our brains that optimism is the only way to have a better time in life.

Here’s a story inspired by that concept:

The adaptive tapestry.

Around the year 2035, climate change may reshape the world’s coastlines.

Maria, an environmental engineer, stared at the holographic display of her latest project — a design as complex and colorful as the painting before us.

Maria smiled. Exactly. Just like the problems we faced, and the solutions we found.

See this?

It represents one of our possible floating city designs.

When rising seas threaten coastal communities, we will reimagine urban living.

The global resource-sharing network will work to help.

When this happens we may learn to collaborate on an unprecedented scale.
