Hot 'n' Spicy (2021)Oil painting by Rory Mitchell

Paradise in a bag!
Hot ‘n’ Spicy is a Surrealist piece that portrays a number of realities and a number of states of mind. This plurality, this uncertainty of an absolute definition, is an undercurrent in most people’s lives.
The painting depicts a woman anticipating a brief moment of respite. The snack she is holding offers a morsel of joy, triggering thoughts perhaps of a faraway world or a happier moment in time.
In contrast, the background describes an external upheaval. The repeated pattern appears to be barely holding on to its symmetry. A reflection maybe of a world in turmoil or a disquiet mind.
