Orphans

Not every artwork must be grotesque to express fear. 
Gentleness becomes the language of loss and can speak louder than a horror, at least to me. Ambiguity is what often creates uneasiness in my perception. The seemingly cute composition , a child and a cat , tells about the quiet ache of being  unwanted.
A child and a cat, an epitome of innocence. Who is the orphan then?
