In a castle, the inner bailey is a protected, central area. Metaphorically, it may symbolize an inner sanctuary or safe space within oneself.

The purple form represents the pineal gland, the centre of perception, inner vision and spiritual awareness. Here it is set on a bright pink form to evoke the idiosyncratic decadence of pastries. The contrasting shapes and colors hint at the layers of one's psyche, with joy and spiritual insight at the core.

Acrylic on cradled, wooden panel.
