The Dream / Labyrinth 39

Mediums: oil, canvas.
Location: The Reina Sofia National Museum (Madrid, Spain).

The central character of the painting is a fantastic and very unusual living creature. Its limbs, resembling tentacles, are drawn to an amorphous object or creature floating in the air, which seems to attract it with its strong energy. The essence of this interaction, as well as the origin of the heroes of the canvas, is covered by a veil of secrecy, and the image itself appears in front of the audience as if through a glass surface having a crystalline structure. The fragility of this thin curtain and the unreality of what is happening resemble a strange dream, which can be interrupted by the slightest interference and crumble because of the blow of the wind.
