A dive into a past. I really like this piece and the sinister imagination over the darkness between small and large entities, who will absorbs whom. A battle of the titans in a way, just like today Leonora Carrington (1917-2011) - Friday the Thirteenth, 1965

It's interesting to me to know what goes on in the artist's mind to create a work.

At first I had a certain resistance towards Leonora Carrington and the surrealist world she portrayed but now, I am really starting to like a lot. The gothic figures, lines connecting them so typical of her visual language, almost medieval darkness and indoctrination of the small figures with the steps to be absorbed by a bigger creature that dominates the space, on the other hand idealism of the figures to the right communicating with fire like creation that goes out through the roof opening. There is a lot of symbolism about the way society was or maybe how she saw the two aspects, religious indoctrination and rational idealism.
