This illustration depicts the abuse of birds in pagodas in many South East Asian countries.

In Buddhism, people believe that freeing captured birds bring good luck and wealth. However, many people have used this belief to make money: birds are captured, starved, drugged and wings are broken so that freed birds cannot fly far away. They are captured back to the cage and the cycle continues for new customers.

 

This abuse is represented by the first painting where viewers thought that the birds are freed, but viewers instead found out that there are strings tied onto the legs of each birds = represents the imprisonment.
