About The Artwork
“Daydream” depicts two figures gracefully interacting underwater. Rich blues and greens depict the scene, with filtered light creating enchanting patterns on both figures and surfaces. The floating figure’s relaxed pose suggests contemplation or reverie, while the standing figure’s upright position adds balance. Vibrant aquatic hues and gentle undulations enhance the tranquil, introspective mood.
Jester’s pool series explores gay life online and in apps – how individuals present themselves and treat one another. The pool represents an isolated yet connected environment, highlighting distorted views of others inside and out.
