A man, a woman, an almost brutal embrace. Surely a toxic relationship - but who is
guilty? Who is the victim? Traditionally light colours stand for purity, sky-blue
belongs to Virgin Mary. On the other side - the red man, bears the colour of evil. Red
eyes on his coat can follow everywhere. Notice that the hole in the pendant is placed
asymmetrically. With the pendant hanging - he, the red man, will tower over her.
Everything seems predictable, if not for the flowers, that have the power to force
themselves even through asphalt. Is there still hope?
