Rene Magritte once said about his 'Tomb of Wrestlers', When there is a rose,
and one is sensitive to it, one makes it as big as I did so that the rose appears
to fill the room.” This painting depicts a single red rose which occupies a
whole room. This work references Magritte’s composition. The domesticated
rose grows huge as if it was never kept in a vase, as if it had been growing old
and strong with time, from the time of the White Rose Movement. The white
rose bleeds red when scratched with a knife.
