This is *Dreamland* by Yoko d’Holbachie, a modern work rich with the iconography of innocence and the subconscious mind. The central figure, with its large eyes and third eye, immediately draws us into a realm of heightened perception. The third eye is an ancient symbol, seen across cultures from Hinduism to esoteric European traditions, representing intuition and a deeper level of consciousness. Note how it has evolved from a symbol of spiritual insight to one of almost childlike wonder in contemporary art. This is not unlike the halo, a traditional attribute of divinity, here softened into a rainbow, suggesting a more playful, dreamlike sanctity. Around the figure, bubbles containing hearts float ethereally, evoking feelings of love and purity, a motif echoing Cupid's arrows but rendered gentle and protective. These are all powerful symbols engaging viewers on a deep, subconscious level, tapping into collective memories and our primal quest for understanding the world beyond the visible.
