In this painting, the indoor woods on artificially processed wooden flooring is a stark contrast to wild woods.
Even though the dead trees hardly provide any decent shade, the room’s interior features an interplay of light and shadow that is possible only in the presence of lush foliage. That arrangement is a metaphor of how the future we believe in, or our imagined end of things, are always against the reality. In other words, mankind's ultimate pursuit is but an illusion.
