These are solid, Gio. I get this feeling of despair from these, as if the faceless subject wants to scream but is unable (because he has no face).
-
They have nothing but a deterritorialized mouth, and no one can hear their screams



-
Is it "they"? I assumed it was one person at various stages. I was tempted to think this as a sort of tryptych, at first
-
Oh yes, I think it is a multiplicity, a Francis bacon triptych that can denote a single subject in a series or a multitude, damn the late night deleuze is pouring out of me all of a sudden :P

Is this you when you anime on the TL?

there is a type of pleasure gained from indulging in one's misery. like the common phrase: "wallowing in his misery." people love the events that ruin them, it's a type of pride in despair. better to stop staring into the abyss and look instead to what is good.
-
Very true, it's the most quoted and cliche Nietzsche meme, but it rings true now more than ever "when chasing monsters make sure to not become a monster" a beast of despair that consumes all things, that is the state of pink wojak.
-
i think the art and mystique of nihilism and despair should not be romanticized, but seen in its ugliness and artlessness, a true non-being which nobody would ever glorify. The banality of evil. Presenting evil with the right camera angles and lighting effects glories it.
-
So make it uglier

needs the eyes to give it the despair look they have, 3rd one really captures the feel
-
Thank yea, yeah the gaping mouth really reminds me of what deleuze wrote about how in horror the monsters always have a destroyed face and dark pools for eyes, the abyss, the completed distortion of the face in a moment of sheer anguish, that's why pink wojak is a powerful meme.

That's why I think there is some hope left in modern art, we just gotta take it over
