Messages from the mind

[SiamJai]

Art is an expression of the mind. But unlike words, the same artistic expression does not convey the same meaning for viewers than it does for the artist. From time to time I'll upload some of these "mind messages" that I make.

Before you click on the spoiler button below, just remember - what the art makes you feel is your feeling; it could be similar, or very different than the feelings of others. :)

-wishes I could be that good at art >_<-

I love the moonlight and the stars are really well done. Teach me how to draw like that D: !!!

As for how it makes me feel hmmm..... well to be honest not much really. Probably surprised you would post something like that up XD Makes me likely to wonder about what people hide in the dark.

Thanks, I'm glad you guys like it. :)

I made it with Fireworks; it's a great tool for visual expression. The more you get into it, the more opportunities it presents.

Screw, I'm surprised that you're surprised. ;) After all, I recommended The House here, so the dark stuff is not unfamiliar territory. :-p

First that take my attention is the moon. Beautiful moon. Next my eyes venture around and found the legs. I was frowning and first thing that came in my mind is 'heh, that disturb the beauty' and then my eyes stuck there. However I try to just gaze and study the moon, my eyes constantly looking at those legs, kinda puzzled why the person suicide.

Thanks Rose, it's nice to see how the process goes. :) As for your last question...

It's a prison. The moonlight and endless starry sky represent beauty and freedom, only inches away from the person yet unreachable through the strong metal bars.

These are in strong contrast with the claustrophobic darkness of the tiny prison cell, coupled with the darkness of the prisoner's guilty mind, which all lead to that desperate act of escape.

Finally, the idea was to put the viewer in the position of someone looking at a hanged corpse in solitude. No matter how beautiful the surroundings are, at the end it's only the viewer and the corpse on the rope - a very eerie and lonely feeling that's difficult to express even in imagery, let alone in words.
Btw, I think Cherry would agree with you - she asked me to give her a copy without the legs. ;)

hmmm, when i saw this i didn't think suicide, i thought it was a someone sitting on a bunk bed that was forgotten to be drawn...

Whats with all the negative thoughts people?

[rosedragon]

I see, thanks for your explanation! Now I see what the meaning of the picture from the creator ;) . I love making something with meanings like that too.
