There is a rectangular, landscape-oriented painting on paper, hanging on a red brick wall. There are surreal, psychedelic faces merging with and emerging out of a landscape. There is the edge of an inky lake below a mountain, a crying face whose tears lead a river into another face's mouth. Next to the painting a mask with half closed eyes and a wide mouth is adorned with a cape of blue fabric, dark brown hair falls from its mouth. In front of the painting another mask has a rope body.

Three, clay, mask-like faces hang above the painting, adorned with colourful hair. Two strands of pink hair hang down in front of the painting.
