CRAJES described the drawing as an eighteenth-birthday gift for Carla’s brother. His brief combined an Egyptian scarab and an ankh with a figure related to their own painting Open door.

The artists also named a work by Marina Bychkova as an inspiration. They developed their own version around the winged scarab and enclosed the drawing in red hair. The image presents the design on paper; it does not document a tattoo applied to skin.
