I had no specific plan or intention upon approaching the creation of this piece. The only thing I had in mind was to paint out of the contents of my imagination. The aim: to represent whatever resided within my subconsciuos mind and to allegorise some of the rumminations that were crowding it, and that ultimately stemmed from personal experience, more specifically, of how I felt about what was going on in my life at the time I came up with this composition.

Two creatures are floating, placed in the position of chasing each other in circles, although upon careful observation each one is doing its own thing. The one on the top is larger and winged, and the expression on its face is terrifying. The one at the bottom wears a creepy smile, and its body is trapped in sequence of colourful rings; next to it there are a flying raccoon with glasses and a buoyant character with a moustache and a Asian conical hat. A variety of candy pieces exhibiting facial features surround the scene, it all happening atop a blue backdrop.

I was one out of the two parts that are the minimum necessary for complicity. Trapped in the joyful interplay of it, but far from enjoying it: joy was closer to a creepy grin on the face than to anything else. And I knew it, but I wouldn't admit it. I saw the damage unfolding and sensed resent growing within me, while masking all grieving. I was unadvertedly immersing myself in a deep state of blue and sorrow, while at the same time choking on sweetness and charm and in apparent joy.
