The juxtaposition of the wave and the breast scar is stunning and works on many levels. In the curved shape of both. In the gradual fade of white after a wave breaks and in the way a scar fades over time. But most movingly, when we consider the enormity of a wave's power, we have some idea of the magnitude of impact that scar has had on the person. Beautifully done.
