The work comes from the series of paintings Greenhouse Pandemic Next wave, which is the next episode after Greenhouse Pandemic’s works. The first painting takes place classically in a greenhouse, with a crypto-princess (inspired by US stand-up comedian Marie Faustin) in the foreground, with different colored tomatoes in her hair. In the upper left corner, a yellow parrot flies with a face mask between its nails. To the left of the center is a pair of lions wearing masks. In the middle sits Joytoy (a sex worker with futuristic dystopia) from the computer game Cyberpunk 2077, played by Keanu Reeves. Behind is an orange Lada, where a fun trio listens to an old-fashioned gramophone. In the background there are 2 giraffes, one of whom is trying to drag others mask. The greenhouse is full of different colored tomatoes and peppers that grow together. There is an ongoing pandemic.
