Statement    
 

The human, man & woman are productive, i.e. they produce children. Here in my graphics I am symbolically presenting the human productive situation. The symbol of creeper and wild plant shows the growth of human species in the world. The presentation in my graphics shows the continuous growth and productive element out of the human body.
