This is the center piece of an at least nine piece.

References to movies like Melancholia, Dancer In The Dark, Dogville and The Idiots.

History of this painting

The early stages, starting in 2018. At one moment, the other fish was swimming in the bottle. Speaking of world problems.

It has to end up on a wall, somewhere, sometime. But stories are not about liking something. It is about feeling.

I like turquoise over black. I don't even like to use black paint at all. But sometimes you feel the dark.

That turquoise paint is also very expensive. Can't say that about the black.
