The artwork represents a scared figure face, created skillfully through quick and confident strokes, resembling the Cobra movement painting, in which experimentation was essential. according to the movement, experimentation was the symbol of unfettered freedom, which, according to the Cobra movement was ultimately embodied by children and the expressions of children.
