This (maybe) can symbolise economical struggle. The moon frowning at us is a good imagery as it seems that the moon can be seen as divine. I also thought about how this could also link to climate change, pollution and other environmental destructions as the moon is made of rocks. There are machines being used which damages a lot of natural beauty of earth and now it results in us realising late what actually caused all these pollution/ climate issues. Great work!
