Description so...i decided to do a remake of the "dead series 1" [link] as it had many faults that u ppl pointed out as well. those things haunted me and i wanted to know if i could do better. i knew i could and i know there's _still_ room for improvement.



anyway so what did i do differently ? not all things can be seen in this pic but i'll list them anyway:

-no cut wrists. u don't kill anyone by cutting their wrists.

-more blood. when a throat is cut, the person bleeds to death... most of it went down the drain here...

-the bruises on the other side of the face= can be seen better.

-a small stab wound in the chest

-more blood in the hands. if your throat is cut, you'll try to stop the bleeding, even if it's no use cos you'll die anyway !!

-the bleeding is the right direction. the chest wound has righteously bled downwards as well since it came first, and the blood from the throat is pretty much all over... (umm, u should see the wall)

-a small wound on the forehead.

-a bruise/wound on the knee.



and to those of you who don't know; this doesn't need to be taken seriously. but i hope u feel something. like bad. most of us are so used to seeing dead in the movies that we don't even blink an eye. i want you to remember how violence feels like.



with that said i can add this is not a perfectly reconstructed death scene since it usually looks even so much uglier...in fact, it's ironic how this, and my other work, takes so much influence from the movies



and in the end, besides being in a way serious about this, i did this laughing and i hope u have you're sense of humour as well. so figure this out...





and since ppl often ask: i use fake blood, different kinds of. here:

-paste-like, dark. in the wounds, lip. dries but looks wet.

-liquid, milky. all over hands, floor, nose....

-liquid, almost creamy. (can be put in the) mouth.



geez what a novel.... ok, i hope u like it, i do. the colors are crappy cos a Sony digital camera was used. it was terrible. will never try it again. helping me was ~sininen just like last time.

your dead series remind me a lot of the work of the photographer Cindy Sherman..i wondered if you knew about her...same disturbing shots and views, same way to make people think with death, art and imagery...
yes, it's disturbing, no i don't think it's "cool" nor "nice"...however, i don't think it's crap at all, it's another attempt to appropriate the most disturbing things in violence and death...well, that's just my opinion...
(and btw, your gallery is awesome !)

well i think THIS isnt art. THIS is just sick.
Who of you likes pictures of dead people? nah. You couldnt say "wow. its good ... i like your view down there."

sick crap.
ever saw a real dead person? why does nobody post an image of a man rapes a woman? THIS would be art hah?

tz.

well i think your photo "grand piano" is more interresting and beautiful as this crap here.

Well, I will give you props for the amount of work that went into this, and it is a nice composition, if not exactly a unique idea. There are quite a few errors (which have already been pointed out above, so I won't go into them again ).. I think putting this in black and white would help immensely, since as it is right now, the blood looks very fake... it's too bright of a red.

I can't really get into the subject matter very much, though.. Not my type of photo. I think what's actually more disturbing than the photo itself is the amount of people that are eating this up. It's really creeping me out.

This is well done. I've never (thankfully) witnessed a murder victim, but I have seen a few people really messed up for various reasons. It's an odd thing. On one hand, there's a part of me that thinks that it's not really that bad to look at. It's really not like in the movies with all the gore and over-the-top latex effects. It's actually not that bad at all. Then there's the part that knows it's real and that someone is really, really hurt and that makes me feel so bad that I sort of disconnect from it so that I can function. This image works in a similar fashion. It's just enough blood, normal lighting, and a sort of 'mater of fact' approach that reminds me of the reality of these things. Only the angle of the shot makes an 'artistic' statment that lessens the reality. Good work.

i like this. nice job with the make up and everything...looks creepy. i think the cut on the neck is done exceptionally well. it looks real for the most part, but i think the blood would be a little darker..im not sure. i hard to make someone look realistically dead, but i think you come close. good job

followghost In reply to ??? [2002-11-04 19:07:23 +0000 UTC]

Sometimes art is done for shock value. Sometimes it is done to see how realistic you can make something that is not real. How many of these people would claim that a photorealistic drawing isn't art?
Anyway, I try not to comment on the daily top favs, since they're already getting all the attention, but I can't stand people going around telling people their art isn't art just because they don't like it, or they don't think the subject is appropriate.
I do agree with the people who said you don't look very dead, though. I think it is trying too hard to be beautiful and scary at the same time. The lipstick, the bruise (which really looks more like eyeshadow to me), the clothing, the fact that the subject is a young black haired gothic looking woman (I know that part is hard to change if it is a self portrait.) It is just too gothic to be seen realistically. I don't know. But it is an awesome picture.
But yeah, you could see this getting into the top favs from a mile away.

Very cool. I would suggest maybe some black and white photographs with the blood still red. Although it's maybe a bit time consuming i think that it would give alot of impact... but still cool all the same.

Although I obviously do not agree with the popular opinion, I must state that I find no entertainment in viewing the emulation of death. I have seen it. It is lonely and stark and final. It will happen soon enough. Now perhaps I shall go purchase a coloring book and summon Winnie The Pooh to help rid my mind of this horror.
