Description What if god was a woman? (No offense meant (: )

Started off as just experimentation with the displacement effect in Photoshop CS5. Inspiration came to me along the way, and this is the result.

If God was a woman this world would not have been as messed up as it is...

Comment:

Very nice composition I must say. The use of balloons and their positioning is very nicely put together as if blown out of the woman's mouth. The woman herself, significantly larger than the hot-air balloons themselves, signifying her importance and dominance, one of a true goddess perhaps. The one thing that put me off however was the tree on the woman's upper back. Perhaps it was to signify the 'seed' of life given off by her, or perhaps her 'roots' in the earth and creation. Just didn't quite suit me I guess. Once again, clever composition, keep inspired, clever use of the effect as stated in the description, blown out 'displaced' and then formed into solid things. Gave me an idea of my own now.

God is neither woman nor man...I somewhat find this insulting :/

mecanique77 [2011-10-30 11:44:41 +0000 UTC]

this is beautiful i often think about it, but from a logical perspective, if "he" is superior, "he" must be asexual-but it doesn`t matter anyway. The girl is very beautiful, the interesting part of your work is that the red marbles as a symbol, reminds me of the famous apple taken from the tree of knowledge( you have incorporated also a tree) so the first time i saw her, i thought about Eve . She has a lot of"apples" red apples in her head -that might be the symbol of the guilt of eve , even if she looks very peaceful, i feel a lot of guilt and that balloon chained to one of the marbles it could be probably be the impossibility of being free . Maybe i`m wrong, the marbles could be a symbol of fertility-and from that point of view, i could see her more as a god, but the fact that they are on her head changes everything. Did you thought about something while doing it?
It looks spontaneous.
