Joshua Flint's 2016 painting "Carousel" depicts a dreamlike scene of figures ascending a set of stairs. The figures appear obscured and ethereal, their features indistinct, giving the scene an air of mystery. The composition is fragmented and layered, with various elements juxtaposed against each other, suggesting a state of transition or perhaps even a subconscious memory. The overall effect is one of unease and unsettling beauty, leaving the viewer to decipher the meaning behind the dreamlike imagery.
