Lately I was thinking about what makes an individual individual.

I figured that it is generally our mind, and memories, that distinguish us from eachoder. But this is wrapped into our expressions, faces, and bodies; which are represented by the eyes on the picture.

And the reason for the explosion... Also I was thinking about the question of unity or diffusion. Our mind, and basically everything else in the material world can be viewed both as a single thing, and at the same time a group of a lot of separate things. Like, a ball as a ball, or as a bunch of atoms and molecules. So I tried to apply this to the self, to the ego, to the memories, in the form of extreme separation; that is, an explosion.

The eyes were influenced by these two pictures: [link] [link]
