Trauma & grief
This masterpiece is tells about, how I lost my entire life, before at age 22. We stood there in a 'Book-chariot' (It is a little chariot at the street, with lot of vintage books, and where the people can buy some book) with the Beautiful Tooth Lady — I just called her because not only her teeth were beautiful, but her smile too — and she asked me to showed her my paintings. I showed them in a row. I showed the masterpieces from the AMARÚNKIYAEN project and from the MINIMÜLISM project too. The Beautiful Toothed Lady had a rather strange reaction to the fact, that after a lot of colorful real Latin American masterpieces (which I showed for her), I started showing to her such drastic paintings from MINIMÜLISM project. He burst out laughing. I was surprised by this too, but it was as absurd as Örkény's (Örkény was a hungarian writer) 'one-minute' novellas, so for a moment - after laughing good at my paintings- I thought about it, can my misery really be so ridiculous to anyone else? - Wow, but that's interesting! - she laughed. - Little skulls and swirling eyes! - she pointed slowly to the little skulls. - And this? Come on, a knife! In here...? What does these symbolize? - she asked, but her eyes were no longer smiling. - How I was abused. - I replied, when as I was just writing a block or invoice to a customer.
