Description

WARNING: long ass comment here... O_O

This is the 4 installment of my Birth of Space series. Hooray! ^_^ I'm pretty exhausted, both physically and emotionally. You see, my mom passed away last Spring. Halloween was her favorite holiday. So I've been thinking about her lately. Plus, I've been improving in my artwork. I wonder what she would've thought about my work. Alas, she's gone.I can only try not to remember her last days here in this world since they were pretty horrific and heartwrenching.

Anyway, this image is the male perspective of the series. Whereas woman is the bearer of life, man holds the seed of life. They are compliments of each other. This image is a metaphorical representation of ejaculation taking place. The sperm (yes, that's what they are, lol. I gave them a different design though) spill out into the universe, thus creating life.

You can find this series spiritual in terms of humans being directly linked to a God or the universe through the power of creation. The abstract architecture, for example, represents this 'higher being' or the embodiment of the universe (this depends on your view of the world; whether you believe there is a higher order or soemthing else). Seth, on the other hand, is sheltered by this structure and is a direct witness to life, as are all humans when they take the initiative and procreate. In this, humans aren't the passive creatures many would like to believe. We aren't creatures whose lives are solely dependent on God/universe (in other words, our destines aren't determined by God). Rather, the relationship between God/universe is split. God may set the stage but humans are the ones who set the dialogue and actions. We are credited for our own successes and failures in life while God/the universe is credited for how much stage time we have.

In many ways, this series has helped me cope with my loss. This series is all about humans, as well as all lifeforms, being linked to the universe or God. I'd like to think my mom still has a special place in it, even if it's only in the hearts of me and everyone else who was touched by her. There's a lotta details in this series, and it requires a lot of patience from me, especially since I use the mouse, but it's helpful. It forces me into a meditative state. Hopefully, you guys enjoy these images and find a meaning that suits your needs. The thing I love about sci-fi is that it's a spiritual place. You don't need to believe in God to be spiritial. I believe everyone has their own interpretation of life and the particular forces that are beyond our control.

Thank you! I'm glad you love it. And yes, i try to open my pieces for interpetation to anyone. I don't like enforcing religious views to those who a) aren't relgious or b) practive another faith. The beauty about sci-fi is that you can appreciate the transcendental universe without even uttering the G word. And if you're a religious person, you can see this all series as one spiritual represenation of God and his creations.

Aw, thank you! Yeah, wouldn't it be cool if sperm evolved like this? We'd probably have a better appreciation for them, lol. And thank you for reading my description of it. I deeply appreciate the kind words.

That has to be the coolest looking sperm I've ever seen.

I love the colors, and details in this. They all blend together so well, too.

I'm glad to hear that creating your art helped you through a hard time. Art has such healing properties sometimes, and making it really gives one time to reflect and even express their feelings on canvas.

Congrats on the DD, by the way.

I am sorry for your loss. I lost my own mother over the summer. It was a horrible shock and I'm not sure how I een got through it. and like you I still have dreams about that I really don't understand and they kind of leave me feeling empty. I hope you can find a way to cope.

By the way your art is very amazing. And while don't quite agree with you ideas at the end of your comment I do think it is very thought provoking as well as the picture. Nice too see an actually intelligent and non vulgar depiction of sperm.

RadiusZero In reply to Jblask [2008-12-19 00:06:48 +0000 UTC]

hah, this is one of my favorite comments given to me for this piece. I sincerely thank you for taking the time to write your thoughts on it. And I'm estatic to hear that you found this piece intelligent. I've wanted to elevate the sci-fi genre into bringing up interesting discussions. And yeah,sperm has typically been frowned on, mainly because of how it is depicted or thought about. Still, they're fascinating little creatures and are the key to creation. They determine the gender of the baby, lol. They're pretty powerful creatures.
