To answer the question you ask on your profile - "what do you see?" -

I see an incredibly intriguing use of surrealism. There definitely appears to be more than one skull represented by the presence of four eyes, and each of them displayed in a different manner.

I see worms crawling through the bones, wheedling their way through in search of more tissue to decompose. I see rings of tissue that resemble tumors or enlarged blood cells.

I see a clock gear set between two eyes, mustaches that look out of place and teeth in rings at the bottom and the (viewer's) right.

But most of all, I see three distinct "faces" sharing one eye between them. I don't know if you intended this as a commentary on how we can all see things differently, but you've done a beautiful job of showing that with this piece. The "decayed" coloring - the splotches of brown throughout, and general focus on muted colors, certainly gives the piece an attachment to death, but I think it works perfectly with this work.

If you'd like a more abstract answer: I see a dream, wrapped in a nightmare, warped by reality.

Thank you kindly for sharing this!
