This was a submission by Mariel García Montes for YAHAnet's first contest in summer 2008.
Artist Statement:
When I learned the theme of the contest, I could not help but think of a popular proverb where I live:"When the hormone is turned on, the neuron turns off." It is perhaps the most annoying thing an adult can tell a teenager who has begun to date people, but it is recognized that there is a lot of truth in the saying.
