painting idea

A man and a woman facing each other in argument, shown from the chest up on the side. The man wearing a suit and the woman in casualwear. Rather than seeing their face and cheek, the heads are hollowed out (like in cross-sectional diagrams of machines or the like). Each head is drawn to resemble a different type of room, and in each head is standing a replica of the person itself. So there is a man in a suit standing in the head of the man with a suit. The woman might be, in this case, standing on a soapbox with a protest sign. The man might be standing in a corporate office with his arms crossed. The scene is replicated outside of their heads.

Outside of their heads there can be a scene of protest blurred in the background, with two sides separated left to right. Inside, a lot of detail would exist in the furniture in each head-room. Also each room has a window to the outside, which is not the true outside, but an ideal of the future. We see skyscrapers and city scenery in the man’s window, and a garden with vegetables on the woman’s.

At the front of each head-room is a workstation, command console, etc. The man has before him sets of levers and valves, as if he were commanding a small steam ship. The woman, a desk littered with papers and medals, perhaps.

Anyway that is what I was thinking of in the shower. Someone want to be commissioned to make it?
