Description
This is the first finisher of my first assignment at the Art Academy!We went to an excursion to MOTI, Museum of the Image, in Breda, the Netherlands. There was a certain exposition there, and we had to pick 5 images we saw there and make a new image based or inspired from it.
I made this.
You see, I thought there was a lot of violence they showed there. Dead people and violence. It was ...confronting. Kindof. So I decided to make something that gives others the same feeling as the images there gave me. The person kills themselves because of the violence. They can't take it anymore. The colours are because..I think we're not serious about death and people being murdered/killing themselves anymore. We make it seem 'normal'..almost colorful to our lives.
I hope this works as confronting. The letters say DEAD.
Just like this person is/will be.
I hope you like this
AND MY ART COLLEGE IS SO MUCH FUN HNG
Thanks to Mike from my class for helping me with this idea!

Now that is one colorful death. It bothers me that it was a suicide, but otherwise, I really like it.

Ah, im sorry that it kind of bothers you ;n; It was for a school project ~
It's colourful because i think we're too easy and colourful about death nowadays, especially about suicide..at least from what i hear on the news ..
Thank you<3 Also for the favourite!:3

Honestly, I think that's why it bothers me though. People take suicide too lightly & people jump to it too quickly to escape their problems instead of finding another way. Your art was supposed to show people that right? So u did a good job.

Yes! I think that ! Haha, thank you (: My teacher liked it too, but he told me I need to get more used to my art style by drawing common objects in it...so it really is my style only Not just restricted to people xD
But he liked the drawing and the idea (:

shading is awesome and I love how the blood splatter turned out, it's an interesting visual effect that I've never seen done like this before.

yeah, I admit I haven't seen a whole lot of art.
honestly, the only thing that isn't great is the arm holding a gun. but a diamond with a chip in it is a diamond all the same, and if your work was flawless you wouldn't be at art college getting the diamond recut.
okay, I've taken that metaphor far enough.
so... yeah. the decision to not show the person's face is an interesting one... I like the idea that it could be anyone holding that gun.
