The left hand side part is the part of Stephen Hawkings's lab. I developed my prisms into a series of steps. This represent human beings's exploration spirit, just like Hawking mentioned in his quote, human beings are able to explore and understand the Universe. The right hand side part represents organic matter through its shape which is the lab for Charles Darwin.

STEPHEN HAWKING
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We are just an advanced breed of monkeys on a minor planet of a very average star. But we can understand the Universe. That makes us something very special.
-Der Spiegel (17 Oct 1988)

CHARLES DARWIN
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There is one living spirit, prevalent over this world, which assumes a multitude of forms according to subordinate laws. There is one thinking sensible principle allied to one kind of organic matter.

-"Notebook C", as quoted in Creativity, Psychology And the History of Science (2005) by Howard E. Gruber and Katja Bödeker, p. 142

NICOLE KUEPPER
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"The amount of things that we take for granted in today's society that some people don't have access to is just mind boggling…"

-as quoted in the video "Solar Star: Nicole Kuepper", UNSW (2008)
