The Predicament is a work that details the struggle of choice, represented here by an owl who can determine what it wants or doesn't want and a fire stick that symbolizes knowledge. Armendariz states that he likes the idea of having to choose understanding and knowledge or choosing to blissfully not know. "I think there's a real advantage in not knowing some things. And then certain people have to know and carry that with them."
