Description
.***Please follow me on Instagram instagram.com/ballistyc/ for new work***
.
Is birth the first day of your life,
or the first day of your death???
I like the idea of things being cyclical...
made with super sculpey
colours enhanced in photoshop
I had trouble deciding on the title. I went through a few;
- Suffer the little children to come unto Me
- Gently Weeps (Beatles reference...)
- Cain and Abel
I decided on calling it "Infected" as a reference to a term I hear being used quite often in science fiction movies to describe non-humans or the diseased. Although either of those Biblical titles would have been great too.

Update (02/04/09)
I took some new photos of this piece at a better resolution and I also entered it into the Spectrum 16 book. www.spectrumfantasticart.com/
Hopefully it'll get selected.....
here's how it looked before cghub.com/files/Image/2389/larβ¦

Oh thanks a lot!
No, this hasn't been suggested for a Daily Deviation
and I doubt it ever will be, but if you want to do it
then you'll need to send a note to one of the 'gallery
moderators'.
thanks for the favourite too!

Wow~ this I haven't seen before. Very delicate work. Quite an original idea I must say.
I admit I find babies quite scary-looking when they are just freshly out of their mums. o_o;

I saw this on my sisters page and had to have a closer look.
omg how the hell does one think up such an idea O_O my mouth actually gaped when I saw this.
This is totally sculpture? There isn't any like animal parts fused ie the ribcage?
I find it such a shocking image, now that's good in the sense it makes you stop,look and think, its not like the sort of image you'd just pass by is it.

Ballistyc In reply to UnaKitten [2010-12-07 15:59:47 +0000 UTC]
Oh thanks!
I've gotten to the point in my life where I'm creating
more personal work, and I do appreciate the fact that
you mentioned you had to stop, look, and think, because
I want my pieces to have a purpose of existence. You
being unable to 'pass it by' without having to stop
and think, and take notice means validation for me...
The entire piece was hand sculpted by me...
...no animal parts were used. I would mention that in
my statement if I did, but adding animal parts is something
I might consider doing in the future. It may add unexpected
results that I've yet to imagine.
thanks for the comment!

Gross. Baby given birth too Death? Even worse is the baby looks all calm about it but worst seems that it is a boy with vagina. I hope this is never gonna end up on a poster. People would go crazy about it. Peace

This right her has disturbed me on so many different levels. In a mildly twisted way this is adorable. I will have nightmares someday about this, but I love. It. I want to hug it then disinfect myself. (In case my ramblings haven't made sense, I truly do love this. Beautiful and thought provoking. )

Ballistyc In reply to miss-Tao-Luath [2010-11-13 01:46:26 +0000 UTC]
hah....I'm not sure if anyone's ever used the word 'adorable'
to describe this piece...it's very unexpected...haha
I like your mention of the word 'Disinfect' though...
...I might have to steal that word from you if I ever
decide to expand this particular concept.
Thanks for your compliments!

I see this has been around for a while, but I'm just finding it now, and finding it amazing at that. So well done, and an intriguing idea. I've got to show this to a friend of mine, I know he'd appreciate it too

Well, it makes me think of those zombie babies with tentacles that can walk on the walls.
If you play the game, maybe you will understand my point of view
