Purple Dream (2023)Oil painting
by Marjan Fahimi

The girl sleeps wrapped in a blanket of golden threads and watches from the corner of her eye as her thoughts take shape in the purple atmosphere of the painting. Fluid shapes float and become animals like horses and dogs or transform into disturbing shapes like monsters with open mouths and hills with eyes. But everything flows like a river without giving the images time to concentrate. Roger Water's lines in Comfortably Numb come to mind:

“When I was a child

I caught a fleeting glimpse

Out of the corner of my eye

I turned to look but it was gone

I cannot put my finger on it now

The child is grown

The dream is gone

I have become confortably numb”
