Contemplating Life


Pondering -- Acrylic
Sometimes I feel like assuming a bodily posture that I then paint. When I painted this I felt like sitting with my head in my hand, tired of thinking.

sitting Sitting -- Acrylic
This is very much like the first posture we ever knew. Everybody needs to sit like this some times, don't you think?

The red colors are only symbolic for pain. The painting is about self injury, there are some razor blades glued to the painting.
For this painting I first collected several art photographs, male and female, to be able to draw this posture. One feels so vulnerable being bent backwards.
There seems to be a blast of light coming from behind. It's direction is to the right, to the furure.
