Created in Sydney during the 2020 lockdowns, this work reflects a moment when the boundaries of our world shrunk to the size of a single room. AAM fills the composition with an abundance of joyful pillows, turning a period of forced confinement into an exploration of softness and safety. The portrait orientation emphasizes the height and density of these objects, suggesting a cocoon-like environment where the outside world is held at bay.

While the artist acknowledges that the world has fundamentally changed and nothing will remain the same, the imagery focuses on the emotional necessity of finding peace within four walls. The surrealist quality of the digital medium allows the pillows to take on a life of their own, becoming symbols of the small comforts that sustained us when the familiar rhythms of life were suspended.
