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.....

Chilling! I love it! I wish I could sculpt, everything I make falls apart xD Stunning job!

it kinda looks like a birth to birth unto death
pretty cool in a cynical kinda way
π: 0 β©: 1
Cynicism is always good....but I like
to think of my work as more humourous though.

Yeah I guess I could see it like that lol.

I don't think I've ever had anyone
refer to my work as poetry.
It's quite pleasent actually...haha
Thank you for that compliment!

Excelent!

its so morbid but so amazing at the same time!

oh thank you...
I think a lot of my work has that duality of being compelling
and repulsive at the same time....or at least I try to make
it that way. Not sure if I always succeed.

That means a lot to me coming from someone of your talent.

haha, thanks...
I always find comments like yours to be the most
assuming....and slightly confusing...haha

You are welcome.
If you'd like me to elaborate, I can.
You take care as well.
I've almost turned a car over while driving...I try being safe.
Thank you.

Way to raise the bar ya big jerk. Do you hand model your fetus skeletons or did you take a mold from a medical model?
π: 0 β©: 1
haha....yeah I hand modeled everything.
Nothing is molded, but that's quite the compliment
if you think it was taken from a mold. I figured
the frighteningly small hands would have been a dead
give-a-way that I sculpted everything myself...
...I have a tendancy to exaggerate proportions.
thanks for the comment, and the favourite as well.

Amazing concept! Really! Is like "Fernando Pessoa" once told: "We are nothing but delayable corpses."
(P.S.: Fernando Pessoa is an portuguese poet ^^)
π: 0 β©: 1
oh thank you very much...
...and thanks for the favourite too.
"delayable corpses"....that's a fascinating description.
Would you happen to know that entire Fernando Pessoa poem?
....cause I would love to read it
take care...drive safely

You're welcome pal 
Yeah, he actually believed that humanity isn't more than that and the pain of thinking about it makes him go scrizofrenic. But the man was an GENIUS.
Here's an link :[link] (but I didin't find the poem sorry 
Btw the original title is "Cadaver adiado que pocria" or "Delayable corpse that pocriate") be free to make an seach).
Here's an sample about another poem from him:
I am the escaped one
I am the escaped one,
After I was born
They locked me up inside me
But I left.
My soul seeks me,
Through hills and valley,
I hope my soul
Never finds me.

oh cool thanks for that...
I've actually had some Fernando Pessoa books on
pre-order since your last message.
