Corruption

I collaborated on this piece with @brusk-ghost! She did the lines and I colored. It is Edgar and Scriabin from Vargas by @zarla-s, from their own Strangels au.  

#vargas #edgar vargas #Scriabin #zarla #this is what happens when you fiddle with your art program and stumble across a lovely concept #Edgar wasn't originally going to be corrupted #but when the imagery fits you run with it #as much as he worries I do wonder if anything physical would change if he became corrupted #and of course whilst coloring the dialogue slipped from my fingers #oops >:D #I don't know if or when the strangels will get another chapter but til then I will dream of their shenanigan's

Last minute Vargas request: I would love to see a digital redraw of one of the doodles from this set! (I can't link to it, but it's "Don’t be shy, speak up" from Dec 22, 2021) You can choose which one, I love them all ❤️ thank youu

Day 30 - Tut tut

#My art #Requestober #Vargas #Edgar #Scriabin #Serendipity! It was actually super easy to choose a redraw from that set! #I knew I didn't want to overload myself with either of the minis so those were easy to nix #The one where they're sleeping on the couch basically was already redrawn so that one's gone #And while Scriabin's bare-shouldered sweater is super cute it's a fairly simple picture - not as much character behind it #Which left Scriabin unsuccessfully shielding Edgar from the rain with his bone wings! #Which also just so happens to be one I've been wanting to do something with ever since And Also With You came out ♪ #The scene of the two of them in the rain together was super cute and it made me excited to have a relevant doodle hehe #So now it exists two ways! Classic and Strangels ♥ #Good pick and thanks for making it easy on me lol ♪ #They're holding hands with their chained wrists ✨ It's totally just easier that way and doesn't mean anything hehehe #Buzzing's drowned out by the little pinpricks of chill #It's a good effort Scriabin

Inspiration

Eikoh Hosoe

Born March 1933

A Japanese photographer and filmmaker who emerged in the experimental arts movement of post-World War II Japan. Hosoe is best known for his dark, high contrast, black and white photographs of human bodies. His images are often psychologically charged, exploring subjects such as death, erotic obsession, and irrationality. Some of his photographs reference religion, philosophy and mythology, while others are nearly abstract.

I used this image by Hosoe "Ordeal by Roses" where the man (author Yukio Mishima) created. I wanted to use this as inspiration for an image in which I strangel my model (Connor) with a shower hose for the ending of his story. I think there is a connection between each image, as they both have a very deep and meaningful moral connotation. My version of this image has the meaning that that you can never fully know the extent of your own actions and to be careful what you say and do, represented by the hose around his neck as the constraignts of society.

✨Nyx✨(June 3, 2023) (like the goddess - mother of sleep, death & darkness - daughter of chaos)

-If you don’t like Art to be explained you’ll hate this- but I want to be understood & people miss the nuance of my work otherwise 🙃

The Sisyphus Empress series

characterized by spheres or balls of color at the torso of the figure(s), meant to serve as the focal point of the piece. Thus conveying pregnant/maternal-Empress imagery of tarot.

the title of the series combines the aforementioned Empress imagery of tarot & most predominantly the song Who Cares by Chloe Black. The song has a verse that is a play on words to reference substance abuse connecting to the chorus of 'nihilism high' because 'Who's gonna care for me in 100 years-hell is a state of mind... I can bring you to paradise.' I don't interpret these verses as justification or cause for substance abuse. I don't do drugs. To me, as a neurodivergent neurotic person, it serves as motivation. It also embodies my approach to my artist journey -if it doesn't matter, it can't hurt to try- in this instance to create as much as I can in whatever medium regardless of if anyone ever sees gets it, or ever connects to my work. Just self-indulgent enough to feel decadent. 'Nihilism high' & 'Hell is other people' (Jean-Paul Satre- No Exit) are among my countless tattoos. Both serve as reminders not to get in my own way or allow others to hinder me and that includes holding myself back to make other people comfortable. Within Chloe Black's song, she creates the same juxtaposition of existentialism & nihilism/absurdism. Both of which I feel when I process the series and my body of artwork as a whole. Although the cycle of creation is Hellish - Sisyphusian - the creation of any art form is fulfilling to me & creation is liberating. It really makes me feel alive and truly living with a sense of purpose. That's where the other songs come in - Hozier Work Song & 100 Years Florence + the Machine. The synchronicity of 100 Years from Who Cares to 100 Years by Florence + Machine is magnificent. 'A 100 arms, 100 years, you can always find me here & Lord, don't let me break this, let me hold it lightly, give me arms to pray with instead of ones that hold too tightly'. Sisyphusian. Hozier's Work song as my mind distorts it to my own narrative - I am the man & the woman. Despite it all, I always return to myself, the creator, the nurturer, the maternal sort of figure. Keeping to that idea, I'm also the mother & the baby. Constantly recreating myself to grow as a 'mother' - creative/artist. Then back to the baby again as I take the risk like the Fool in tarot which is card 0- to create & share it with the world. I'll leave further interpretation up to you to prevent this post from being any more ridiculous.

the Empress imagery of tarot in this series expresses the Sisyphus rock as the child. The Empress in Tarot is card 3 which reminds me of the maiden-mother-crone rolled into one. Fitting since for me Sisyphus is me, the rock is me, and the rock is my potential. Yet potential can be heavy & turn into trepidation-unease. Something otherworldly- magical- the taking of an image in your mind's eye or a feeling made into something 3D becomes tainted. Sisyphus perpetually fought gravity and the doom of inevitability. I feel that way when I create. Creation itself is self-awareness, at least for me, especially with pieces like To Find It's Fleeting. Going back to my approach to my artist journey -if it doesn't matter it can't hurt to try- in this instance to create as much as I can regardless of if anyone ever sees gets or connects to my work. Just self-indulgent enough to feel decadent. I feel a bit guilty if my brainchildren just collect dust & that is a hellish state of mind albeit an Empress way of life. Returning to the Maiden, Mother, Crone idea along with the Strangeling tier + my tattoos (this bitter earth what a fruit it bears - my body as the fruit & the earth) + Dinah Washington's This Bitter Earth 'This bitter Earth... what a fruit it bears... and if my life is like the dust that hides the glow of the rose what good am I? Heaven only knows... today you're young too soon you're old but while a voice within me cries I'm sure someone may answer my call & this bitter earth may not be so bitter after all.'

The overarching feeling is to create as if the world is ending. To embrace the unknown & or potential and not let it become crushing from within - before it even really exists - to own it without possessing it. The song Marry the Night by Lady Gaga because I have that sort of heart - 'Marry the dark... make love to the stark I'm a solider to my own emptiness I'm a winner.'

Something in the Sky

On the subject of cryptids, I have always been and remain agnostic. My attitude is that stories are great and they're fun to hear, but until I see the thing... in the wild... with my own eyes, all these creatures are are stories. Until they walk right up to me from the woods, Bigfoot, Mothman, the chupacabra and all the haints and boogers that go bump in the night are just urban legends. (Wow! I need to take a break from Old Gods of Appalachia.)

Well, my dear strangelings, as fate and Charles Fort would have it, it turns out that I have actually seen a cryptid... or cryptoid? I'll get into the debate in a bit, but there doesn't seem to be any agreement on what category this critter falls into. Due to the uncertainty, there isn't much in the way of good and well researched information. Even the photographic evidence (as you can see above) doesn't give us a whole lot to go on.

So, what is this squiggle in the sky? I was asking myself the same question when I came across it back in the twenty-teens. The name given to it is "sky serpent". Now, while I saw a total of twelve of these things almost a decade ago, I just learned that they're a thing last week.

"Twelve?" Yes, twelve... four groups of three over a period of about twenty minutes. My guess is it was possibly a migration. They were moving in a southern direction over the city of Boston in late summer or early fall. I only saw them because I looked up while stretching a kink out of my neck. Were it not for that... knot... I would have missed them entirely. City people don't look up, especially in Boston. We keep our eyes down and mind our business.

I wasn't the only one who saw them. The one friend who always seems to be with me when weird shit happens was there. Because we were both looking up and watching these things, a few other people looked to see what had us mesmerized, then a few more. Pretty soon, there were a couple dozen people just watching this sky parade.

The photos aren't mine, but they illustrate the problem of getting photos of aerial phenomena. Unless you have professional equipment and you KNOW it's going to be there, photos will always be crappy. Don't believe me? Take a picture of the moon with your phone. Even the "good" ones I have are mostly lens flare.

Having said that, I mentioned the words... THE words at the root of the debate. Are sky serpents creatures or crafts? Ufologists say they're the former and crypto zoologists say they're the latter. (Of course, I would find the critter that defies classification.) Yes, they move through the sky, but they seem to be organic. They move like snakes or eels. I may not know much about UAP, but I haven't seen anything in the historical record describing extraterrestrials getting out of or off of one of these. (Perhaps Mr. Hanks will find something and correct me.)

What I have seen in the scant literature on the topic of "sky serpents" appears to draw comparisons with the traditional depiction of dragons in Chinese and Japanese art. No, I am not saying dragons are real, but if ancient cultures had seen these sky serpents, I can see how that would give rise to myths about dragons. Had my mother been with me, that is precisely what her conclusion would have been.

Biological entity or extraterrestrial craft, my big questions are: Where are they coming from? Where do they go? Why have we not seen one on the ground?

Obviously, I have no answers. No one does because the people who typically study this kind of thing aren't interested. I've only seen them myself the one time. I did see a video in a Facebook group I belong to. One of the members got footage at about 30,000 feet while on a flight... assuming it's not doctored. That's how I became aware that those weird flying whatevers I saw were a known phenomenon.

Has my position on cryptids changed? Nope! Bigfoot is still gonna have to sit down next to me and ask for a cigarette. Mothman is going to have to read my tarot cards. That said, if the pros don't want to invest the time and energy into getting something close to answers about these "sky serpents" then maybe I finally a cryptid to hunt.
