this is my image of war

i've posted a image created by me that make me see what war is....
if you like it...
more coomin' soon

Would you mind explaining your creation? Perhaps I'm dense but I don't see the point that you're making with this image. Please explain it to us.

Good work, but I agree with str34m3r, I think it needs a little more explanation.

I see your art but not your point!!!

Picture looks pro, but i dont see your point. Maybe the person was hit by a ballistic missle and half of his body was put back together by an insane scientist? please explain.

did any of you look at the side of the picture? "Nothing remains the same".
IE, war will change us, maby for the better, but prolly for the worse......I don't like this picture for one reason.....it's too provocative, having the person stare straight at you. and being part machine....some things that I simply don't like...machines should never be made too look like humans.....we are not god's.

War sucks.

<EDIT>
I should have added this, it is a really good picture, and made with great skill, but it still freaks me out... oh well.....I suggest you post this at www.Deviantart.com I think they would like something like this.
</EDIT>

Well, Dude it is a cool picture, but still don't understand your point.
but i may be wron, any ways that's your point of view, specially war.

I could be wrong but not all art needs a point... I guess you could say sometimes its all about the feeling it gives you... Instead of looking for a point think about how the picture makes you feel.

p.s. Its a damn cool pic Anatra good job!

I don't really understand much art, but that does kind of make you sit and think at war. Maybe I'm just seeing it from a weird angle because I'm against most of the wars we've had, and a big geek, but wow! Very nice work!

well thank for your response....
it's all good....

I like a lot the debate that is created... both the positive criticisms as those negative (what at times they help).
I believe that the art doesn't need explanations....
and what inside the various comments there is already the answer to the doubts servants...
the war changes the man..... (you look at the writing) making to become him uglier.... almost a Robot.......

Anatra,

Everyone could have different opinions on war as on art... I don't like war and I don't like the picture itself , BUT I do mean that your picture is a really nice piece of work(or art ).
Also I do mean that whether you like an image or art or you don't like , you always should respect the work. Well about the war .. already enough said on that topic here on AO ( for me)

Greetz,

The interpretation IS the entire beauty of art. While a piece might not be visually appealing, the feelings it invokes (or doesn't invoke) are what make it great. There need not be any reason or intent for art.

The beauty of art is not always made to be understood. Everybody may understand any piece of art the way they choose to. Art has no boundries, no limits, and not always a meaning. Look behind the picture, try to gain a feeling. That feeling will be your understanding of that piece of art. That picture frightens me. It showes unexpected cruelty, sadness. It shows a feeling that i would never want to experience. Hence : WAR.

It also shows me something else. That half machine and half man part... I live in greece, and things are simple here, we dont have high technology. Nor do the countries that are being attacked. It shows me what happens when a high technological country invades a simple country, and the technology it brings with it. A future?? I fear the day when man will be half machine. Its real creepy. In combination with war.... OMFG. That picture tells alot of past, present, and a very posible future.

Cheers.
