Description
First out of a new project developed with . I upload it here, since TVDS got banned for no known reason. Obviously controversal art is not wanted on DA anymore. The best would probably to close the "Horror & Amcabre" and "Fetish" Channels altogether. Then no art that could be seen as offensive will be on display here on DA.If you want to protest against s ban, please do so in his journal .

He is an amazing artist. His art is stunning.
I remember critics and administrators some time ago and far from here who had little narrow minds; but, they were big art fans. For how, if they could not comprehend it, could anyone comprehend it. Condemnation is easy, comprehension takes work.

I love this piece! The model looks so much like a broken doll.
As for TVDS, I agree, his ban is total utter bullshit. One of the functions of art is to bring to light controversies that the average politically-jaded sheep wouldn't think of bringing up. TVDS's work makes one think. Like I posted in his recent journal, art isn't all children's picturebook work; we adults have a right to make art that expresses our ideas too.

TDSV has produced some of the most thought prevoking and ammusing work i have seen on DA

take a look at [link] and reply there. It is probably the best to discuss this issue more openly for all to see.
Besides this pic is the beginning of an all new direction for both of us, so lets rather celebrate that!

I don't know it, because nobody from DA has explained the reasons yet. It is just a guess. I get the impression that DA only looks at the surface of his work, not at the *meaning*. How can anybody be pro-rape, pro-selfdestruction or pro-harrasement? His pictures are protests *against* those things! By banning TVDS, DA suddenly supports people commiting these things, at least according to my opinion.

i believe its less complicated than that, because there are many others on DA which do macabre and Horror, fetish etc art. and some deviants who have no clue about art post plain 100 amature porn on here. if DA would really care bout that theyd have to bann half if not more of the community
and so far that i ve seen his work it doesnt strike me as offencive and provocative he clearly digs fetish and builds his art on it thats all, nothing new have seen it all before, hes good at what he does

Well, he would not agree if you "degrade" him to a fetish-photographer. Again the fetish and gothic imagery is only the surface. Underneath that surface there is really often protest against things that are going wrong in our world. You should really take a look at his page. There you'll see better what I am referring to.
Then again it could be that you are right. But does that make my theory less likely? Or what is even worse, does that mean the DA admins are less ignorant to art? Quite the opposite I'd say. If one has not got the abillity to comprehend the message of a piece, no matter who the creator ist, and thus sees underneath the surface, is simply lacking the intelligence to actually understand *anything* about art.
