This expressive painting depicts three figures in close proximity against a dark background, suggesting an intimate conversation or moment of gossip. The figures are rendered in loose, gestural strokes with a pale, flesh-toned palette contrasting against areas of deep black. Splashes of vibrant color - including orange, pink, and blue - are applied in an energetic, almost violent manner across the faces and upper bodies. The paint appears to drip and splatter, creating a sense of movement and emotional intensity. The composition is tightly cropped, focusing on the upper portions of the figures, emphasizing their closeness and the secretive nature of their interaction. The raw, unfinished quality of the brushwork and the exposed upper bodies create a sense of vulnerability and exposure that plays on the painting's title.
