The three paintings "DON'T SPEAK", "DON'T HEAR", and "DON'T SEE" are linked together by the concept of the three wise monkeys.

In "DON'T HEAR", the astronaut covers his ears with his hands, as if trying to block out some unwanted noise. Perhaps he's overwhelmed by the sounds of a world that's changed beyond recognition, or maybe he's just trying to create a moment of quiet in the midst of chaos. Whatever the reason, this painting invites us to consider the power of silence and stillness.
