WAVE AFTER WAVE COTTON SILK LONG SLEEVE SHIRT LIMITED EDITION of 100

Mystery is inherent in this dreamlike image. Painted in a surreal manner reminiscent of René Magritte and Paul Delvaux.

A woman wrapped in a white robe, sits in a starlit garden under the blue night, in her hand she holds a crimson rose. She is mirrored in her pose by a skeleton who holds a candle in a disarming, pictorial display.

FURTHER READING

The skeleton, candle and flower are classic vanitas themes symbolising: life, death, rebirth and reminding the viewer of the transience of life and the certainty of death.

The image is accompanied by hand-painted cursive text, graffitied over the image are words taken from the poem titled, ‘And this I dreamt, and this I dream’.

And this I dreamt, and this I dream,
And some time this I will dream again,
And all will be repeated, all be re-embodied,
You will dream everything I have seen in a dream.
To one side from ourselves, to one side from the world Wave follows wave to break on the shore,
On each wave is a star, a person, a bird,
Dreams, reality, death—on wave after wave.

—Arseny Tarkovsky, Life, Life, trans. Virginia Rounding
