Description:
Created during Chapter 2 (2020 - 2023), this piece is part of the Versions of Robert Collection—a deeply personal body of work reflecting my journey through my mother’s stroke, dissociation, and eventual dementia. This period of my life involved immense inner soul work, each piece acting as a page in a diary, often accompanied by a poem or story.
The Wild Fire Dragon embodies raw power, transformation, and the struggle between control and surrender. The dynamic brushwork and movement reflect a soul caught between destruction and liberation, battling between desire, purpose, and self-awareness. The dragon—symbolising both an untamed force and a guiding presence—asks whether we can embrace our inner fire without being consumed by it.
A piece that burns with the intensity of self-reflection, desire, and the untamed energy of the soul, inviting the viewer to embrace their own inner fire.

Wild Fire Dragon
..
Wild fire dragon
Can you live with my soul
Can you save my soul
..
What is this concept of feeling
A heart full of fire
A mind full of voices
A lifetime spent watching
..
I press the self-destruct button
Show me
Want me
Control me
..
Waiting to flow
Learning to breathe
I pause the how
..
Soldier stand to attention!
What is your disguise?
What is your dream?
What is this facade?
..
World of images
Of busy original people
& flattered egos
Blinded by a cause
While the pain burns
..
The space within my soul is engaged
Occupied
Distracted
Detached
Waiting to touch your skin
..
Wild fire dragon
Dance with me
Free me
Deliver me
To somewhere!
..
I am spellbound
I remember my memories
You are deep in my dreams
That I can taste your desire
..
Wild fire dragon
Mark my soul so I can’t stop
Touch me quickly
Don’t let me pause
Let me roar
..
Wild fire dragon
I am heard
