@petrabrandstrom@mastodon.art Such a powerful contrast. The monsters a child's imagination can conjure. I immediately thought of John Bauer's Ut i vida världen, probably because it's like the polar opposite of this, so light-filled and spacious. Another difference: here we have the idea of play, whereas Bauer’s subject is a fairytale, and the horse and the sword are real. But wait a minute – is that a little trail of blood we see in the corner, by the wooden sword. Hmm…

  • @jussi_og@mementomori.social what! I was actually trying to find that image when researching references for this, but couldn't remember the title. Wild that it came through anyway somehow! I'm very glad you mentioned it, thank you. :D
