A Shape that Stands Up and Listens #2, 2012 

Fear. You jump from every slight shadow ( a grey background figure in the middle). The fear makes you imagine things much more powerful and a lot frightful than they really are (a black silhouette at the right part of the painting). The fear shackles you (the grey figure from lower left corner to right middle). The fear leads you to a wrong direction, thus making the most damage to you.
