About this painting
This painting is about the subjugation of masculinity and was inspired by a vision while watching the film Saw, soon after the leader's debates that preceded the 2010 British General Election. The picture was of a naked muscular man, dead in a dark cellar or prison draped with a red rose and lit through a female window by a distant light.

A hulking figure lies in impaled by a giant horn. The scene is beautiful and sad, yet the moon appears to be unsympathetic.
