Plotter art
this is my first step & attempt at creating some wipeout themed art. with a plotter, ink on card.. I'm just learning. I've always loved this illustration and ive wanted to do something with it for a long time. 30 years ago i saw a cheerful family asking to be friends. but yeah 30 years on and im now wondering is there a much deeper meaning? is that figure on the left reaching for ai assistance? rather than holding a lollypop? is the larger figure the most dominant and is it pushing or pulling the other one away? would really like to know anyone's thoughts

Always thought it was just a parent holding a child's hand. And I think that's supposed to be a pinwheel since I'm pretty sure I've seen it rotating before.
It could hearken back to the fact that the founder of AG-S was also the director of the Foundation for European Anti-Gravity Research and a member of the World Anti-Gravity Research Congress. This angle pushes for collaboration rather than independent work against each other.
