Description:
This artwork depicts sexual violence towards children, both genders. You can see traces of the violence already committed scattered all over the room due to trust and love. The angel of Moloch is someone who has committed the said acts of sexual violence towards the children, but who has since passed away. Yet he still haunts them to this day because they never told anyone, till the artist had produced his experience to stop the act of sexual violence.

This can even represent a possible future as many children see the acts committed to them as normal and then realise later after the suspect had passed on, that he should have been stopped while alive. Now he is an angel of Moloch and in hell because of the acts he committed. People should stand up by investigating and asking their children, and act truly and committed to stop the act from happening again or to others, and live free in harmony.
