Dreamy scenes are a staple of Eddy’s work. In this painting dreamscapes intermingle on the picture plane like something from a Surrealist film. A sultry nude reclines in one overlay, while pedestrians bustle through the rain at night in another overlay. The warm glow of a sunrise pokes over the city after a storm, alluding to the hope of a new day. Eddy’s self-portrait is hidden in a line of buildings, suggesting that this was all a dream he had.
