Description I started this painting (acrylic on canvas) last october and finished it today, 6th of June. It didn't take me so much time to paint it, but I was busy so I left it unfinished for a few months...
It's probably the most complicated piece of work I've ever done.

I have mixed different ideas into one, things from the past and visions from the future. It's more like a big metaphor of evolution - but not serious at all.

In the painting you can find allusions to the black plague, to communism, to individualism, to the missing link, and to nuclear war.

But if you just see a stupid drawing here, it's OK too (and you'll probably be nearer to the truth !)

P.S : sorry for the low quality of the image, I'll try to edit a better version later.

Amazing work...I like that you added your inspiration/dissection of the work. I agree, art can represent anything (that's the best thing about it, don't you think?) but actually knowing what the artist is thinking brings new perspective and awareness to the piece!

Thank you so much...
I totally agree with you, art is the only real freedom, we can represent all that we want... but I think we can also interprete it as we want, the vision of the artist is important but it doesn't prevent us to see it in a personal way too
