RE: My Pandora Singularity continues
This must be so fun, to keep layering and layering as you go. Both physically and experimentally and artistically. There is no limit, like writing. "Where to go NOW"? And so nifty that you can just change it, if you so desire. As you say, SO different than an oil painting (at least with my limited knowledge of such). But I can imagine, I've done that a few times in my life. (Imagine, not paint with oils. That would be more than a bit interesting).
I do really like that cosmic look to the back-lit dress...way cool effect.
And the green dress, don't take this the wrong way, as I love both color and design, but you know me. It brings to mind one of the funniest scenes in TV history. Ms. Burnett and her curtain rod. (Not any reflection on your lady, her dress, or the final product, but my mind just wanders about at a regular pace. And that one just sort of surfaced. Like a big frog in a small pond.) I think I may be rummy here, I think I may go to bed. Have a most wondrous night, though you are probably smarter than I, and asleep as life intends after the midnight hour. Gooten Nachten, or however it's spelled.
Haha, oh that makes me smile. Although I had no intention of that hilarious Carol Burnett episode, I love it now that it made you think that. I tried the dress in a few shades and went with green, as I liked how it had a 'natural earthy living' quality to it on a mainly mechanised being.But, a slight nod to the hilarity of Carol riffing on Gone with the wind only makes me love the colour choice more! I mean, I just like funny quirky things, so it's good.
These pieces are a bit more 'serious' for me, but at the same time I like, in my own dark humor sort of way, the hilarity of a world made thus from a place in time that was sold to us to mechanize and computerize so we could buy groceries more easily and have 'better protection on our credit cards'. The coming android and AI movement is all about how 'good' it will be for the human animal but we all know that most things humans do to 'improve' the world are usually for the improvement of a very few at the cost of the masses cough cough industrial revolution cough.
And speaking of that, we always seem to look at the Victorian Industrial Revolution as this bad time in the past when we polluted cities so much that London was known to be 'foggy' which it is not but was simply clouds of pollution, and young children had to work factory jobs in dangerous situations and poverty was horrible with slave labour cost of living. Yet, we all currently benefit from that very same situation still existing, it's just not directly on our shores as much, so we ignore it. That to me is humanity to a tee which is why, in the 'you have to laugh or you'll cry kind of way', the hilarious world being made for 'us all' is only going to be the very opposite of what we are told. And in a way, we are all in that skit of a world meant to be serious like Gone with the Wind, but is more accurately a Carol Burnett parody.
Whew, well, that went off the rail. I guess we just spur one another on to long comments :) And my bad habit of run on sentences, of which I have no intention of fixing.
