Fully understanding this piece, lies in the importance of the referenced paintings in The Gallery. Cocoon, on the left, opens a pathway to the inner child. On the right, Self-Sacrifice sheds light on the sacrifices we make for the sake of others, and losing ourselves in what others think. These paintings are real paintings, apart of my body of work.
The fish is you, the viewer.
And the sea: your paradise; your highest and best timeline.
