"TIME TO FLOAT" I$ PART OF MY ONGOING EXPLORATION OF FEAR, MYTH, AND THE THIN LINE BETWEEN THE $ACRED AND THE GROTE$QUE. IN$PIRED BY IT, WHERE CHILDHOOD NIGHTMARE$ TAKE SHAPE IN RED BALLOONS AND GHO$TLY VISION$, THIS PAINTING TRAN$FORMS HORROR INTO A MIRROR OF THE HUMAN CONDITION.
AT THE CENTER FLOAT$ A HAUNTING FIGURE, SU$PENDED BETWEEN LIFE AND DEATH, INNOCENCE AND TERROR. HER PALE EYE$ $TARE UPWARD, AS IF CROS$ING INTO ANOTHER REALM. BEHIND HER, BLOOD-RED BALLOONS $PELL OUT CRYPTIC WORDS - $LEEP $HEEP. I$ IT A LULLABY, A WARNING, OR A COMMAND TO OBEY?
THE BALLOON$ ARE PLAYFUL YET MENACING, ECHOING THEME$ OF CONFORMITY, HIDDEN DEMON$, AND THE WAY FEAR DRIFT$ SILENTLY THROUGH OUR LIVE$. THIS PIECE I$ NOT ONLY HORROR, IT I$ A PORTAL, INVITING THE VIEWER TO CONFRONT THE MONSTER$ WITHIN AND THE MA$KS WE ALL WEAR.
