The wicked brushstrokes and cacophony of colour in this artwork is destructively segmented by thick, black lines, creating a stained glass window effect. Here is a world where chaos and order rule in tandem, a violent outpouring of lava greets a quiet stream, where life and destruction meet at a head. The master of this world, a partially concealed figure, looms ominously at the top of the picture frame, her arms extending outward, like a puppet master pulling the strings.
