Artist's Interpretation:

A man runs through the landscape of his dreams and his thoughts, shaped by the clouds (woman, couple upper right, Canadian goose upper left corner), comfort him. A game of waiting played on the chessboard of emotions. Two souls (roses) reaching for each other, not to become one but each one to discover the other. The running man is not aware of the roses with their stems and their thorns, he is not thinking about joy (roses) nor pain (thorns), he is enjoying the "romantic interlude" of his imagination, the memory of yesterday recreated for the expectations of tomorrow.
