"The theme of this work is the act of what is thought to be negligible and insignificant leads to
something unexpected due to some mysterious influence caused by the act itself. The work draws the
scene where the protective gear worn by the girl, who is a dog trainer, resembles the appearance of the
main character in the fairy tale “Little Red Riding Hood”, attracting the wolf due to some accidental
force appearing in the image of an angel. However, the girl, thanks to her usual training, deals with
this in a calm fashin. In the background is another dog trainer who fell victim to this force."
