Thinking through Drawing

Unfortunately my project is coming to an end, however, I am still going to explore the links between sex and death and make it known that it is an OKAY thing to talk about in relation to one another as they are both equally beautiful.

Created with the use of water colour paint, in order to add beauty with the smooth marks and to also add colour. The head and arms are purposeful not there in order to direct the viewer to the main focus of the painting. The ripped rib cage. The reason to why I have not included the breasts within the ripped flesh as I am trying to get across the point that even though you may have a perfect body and may be seen as ‘sex symbol’, we al have skeletons. These perfections mean nothing because we are all just flesh, fat and muscle on top of our interior skeleton. So because we all have a skeleton, we should all have the ability to be seen as a ‘sex symbol’ and people should not have prejudiced what is on the exterior of a being’s body as all that matters is the inside. We are all equally beautiful.

Otto Dix

Most of his art work is based around death and war which i find is pretty cool, especially in the etchings shown above. They are both equally gruesome but also beautiful at the same time. These etchings question death and what it means to have died. The mark marking within these 2 is absolutely extraordinary as it makes the drawings come to life as if they were real. They are both so inspiring, especially when I love creating art around the topic of death. However, these paintings bring about the meaning that death is gruesome, where as I believe that it is a beautiful thing.

Death
