A graphic, grotesque painting of a balding, bug-eyed man with white hair and decaying flesh and open boils in dominant shades of gray and magenta, his clothing tattered and torn. Behind him, a crumbling home is suggested through objects and voids of space rendered in swirls of prismatic colors like those reflected by an oil slick: dark purples, greens, blues.
