Dream Beneath the Burden

A sleeping woman reclines in a white bed while a strange, overloaded structure rises above her, crowded with fish, fruit, animal forms, a skull, and hanging pieces of meat. Diagonal wooden beams cut across the foreground, creating a sense of weight and precariousness, while a barren landscape, pale moon, and glowing red sphere extend into the distance. Textured, tactile brushwork gives the scene the charged stillness of a disturbing dream.
