Piggy Back
2006

A detailed etching depicting a surreal scene with a central figure that appears to be a fusion of human and tree-like forms. The figure has a human face with expressive eyes and long hair, and its body seems to be made of wood or branches, with textures resembling bark. The figure is seated, with a smaller, more distinctly human figure embracing it from behind. The background includes abstract elements and a small, whimsical tree growing out of a rock-like structure to the right. The artwork is numbered and signed by the artist, indicating it's part of a limited series.
