The world of the subconscious dream is inhabited with fantasies of delirious characters within a strangeness of universal and enigmatic elements which dominate the unconscious and would appear to be commonplace in all dreams.
Head Ballet was an infectious little dance performed by the Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band on the stage of West End nightclubs in the late 1960's. It was a dance with a musical accompaniment that carved deep and lasting impressions in the ripples and canyons of the mind. This association was to provide the impetus for the creation of the painting.
The design came from an interpretation of a scene from the Ballet of the Sleeping Beauty. At the moment of waking from the deepest of slumbers, Beauty assembles her scrambled and morphological thoughts and begins to rebuild her view of the world of conscious and concrete realities
