A Picasso-style cubist collage: (1) stylized startup logos floating upward for the “Where are they now” theme, (2) angular airplane and Capitol silhouette for aviation unlocking government, (3) scattered baggage shapes for BHS inefficiencies, (4) a sleek private jet interior rendered in geometric abstraction, (5) a Boeing 737 climbing through layered shapes for the production boost, and (6) a surreal human silhouette in motion for the mobility future.
