Her childish garments and rumpled socks suggest her tender age. This sterile and alienated space brims with ominous and sinister evocations, bringing forth subject matter that is almost unpalatable. A classic composition in Djurdjević's oeuvre, this exquisite painting evokes the brutality in everyday life and how the different forms of power plays inform our daily living.
