We assume time to be a straight line of string going forward to the unknown, but really, time is a flat circle. Continuum depicts time in our hands. It shows a female figure capturing time in a glass bottle as you would a butterfly. Her beauty will fade eventually, so will possessions. She knows this and doesn't let the facade of cars and houses blind her from this truth. She clinches the bottle to prevent it from slipping and breaking. She will forget the truth of what is truly important: doing the best she can with the time she has.
