Background Noise 

"Background Noise" by Sarah Joncas is a captivating, hyperrealistic painting that draws the viewer into a dreamlike state. The painting depicts a young woman asleep in a bed with a white snake draped around her neck, which evokes a sense of tranquility and vulnerability. The delicate patterns of the bedsheets and the soft lighting further contribute to the overall sense of peacefulness. Joncas's meticulous attention to detail and masterful use of light and shadow create an immersive and visually stunning work that invites contemplation on the nature of dreams and the subconscious.
