This thought-provoking collage explores the contrasting perspectives of childhood imagination and parental concern. At the center, a young boy sleeps peacefully, cradling a baby dinosaur on his bed. Surrounding him are unsettling images—snakes, sharks, a clown’s head atop a skeletal body, and mysterious unidentifiable creatures floating in an ambiguous environment that feels both underwater and outer space. Cut-out letters in the top right corner spell out "A Boy's Dream is a Mother's Nightmare," highlighting the tension between the boy’s innocent fascination, likely inspired by comics and movies, and a mother’s instinct to protect him from the dark, chaotic world his mind envisions. A captivating blend of wonder and unease, this piece challenges the boundary between fantasy and fear.
