The heart (Figure 1) has several colors: the grayscale part

expresses the ash resulting from annihilation of substance or
death, or disease without any treatment. The bright colors
in form of a flap or transplant, represent rebirth or return
to life by the surgeons hand symbolized by the scalpel.
The flap is shaped in the form of the African continent,
reflecting the topic of cardiac surgery in Africa.
