hah, never thought of that! thatΒ΄s a VERY creative idea... lol.^^
thank u
So how I stumbled on this one and it really jumped out at me. The contrast and detail are both really good. But It is the very visceral disturbing feel to it, that got my attention. good work.

Nice stuff
I'm around guns a lot, real and fake... so it's weird for me to see people automatically say, "omg, must be suicide." as soon as they see a gun.
A lot of this behaviour, i understand, is taught, rather than born. From TV, magazines, movies and the internet, people see terrible images. People are taught that when they a lone person, and a gun, in such a pose, that it MUST be suicide, must be bad.
IMO however, why can't someone like this have a lust for... say, power? Or a lust for the gun itself? The cold steel brings about odd feelings in her, the power... not knowing what to do, she aims it at herself, at the camera, at the bird sitting on the window sill...
You know, some more poetic shit like that! Why does everyone always think of suicide? Are a lot of DevArt users suicidal? I'm starting to believe so...
lol
Anyway, great pic, and great gallery. You deserve a fav.

Yes, it is a strange consept.
However, I think itΒ΄s close 2 impossible 2 change it.
People arent familiar with guns, it something unknown which makes it scary and temptaing
(which they of course mostly r, lots of bad damaged can be done with them)
thank u.
Either very interesting for what it appears to be to me, or very interesting because of the fact that I'm oblivious. Is this meant to be a depiction of general suicide, of shooting your own heart, or something I'm completely oblivious to?
Either way, a great work of art.

Thank u 4 the comment!
Well, my art is supposed to be taken as U want it... no guidelines what so ever
Sure, i have a idea when I take the photo, about the feeling or action i want to capture, but to each and everyone who view this photo, itΒ΄s personal how u read it.
But sure, the heart in this pic might have had a role when i took this photo
It says a lot about the artist, to create such fine art with what other people want in mind rather than their own feelings. But to me, I feel the deepest meaning of art is what the artist feels about it.
It would be interesting to see what you felt about your art when you first saw it, though if you were to say your feelings then people would see a much narrower view on it.
It leaves you as one of the greatest artists I've seen in my opinion.

well, I wouldnt say itΒ΄s so much about creating what other people want instead of expressing my own feelings. But I mean, u cant find 2 people who look at 1 picture exactly the same way.
Of course I have a vision and a idea when I take these, but itΒ΄s not deadly serious 2 me to get threw, like - cant u see what I tried here?? ThatΒ΄s not the main thing.
If someone thinks a piece of mine is beautiful, they do, and itΒ΄s probably 4 different reasons than i think itΒ΄s beautiful.
I do try to create a certain mood when when I photograph, and do of course hope that it gets threw 2 the viewers, however, I like 2 leave room 4 the imagination.
2 me that is the main thing of art
And a great view it is, I see what you mean about it, and it makes a lot of sense. Just as I view it as the gun aiming at the heart, another has viewed it previously as the gun aiming simply at your boob.
I don't suppose you're ever going to be one to give input towards the artists feelings on it?
π: 0 β©: 1
yeah, those views certainly r different. And lets face it, the other devation comment is to me nothing that he meant seriously, however, if he likes 2 have fun with the consept, then fine.
What I did point on was the more serious comments though, though any kind of course r welcomed.
Noh, sure I can give an input.
Why I dont do it with my art is just because I dont want to guide and leade people to think certain things, or see certain things that they didnt be4 just coz I pointed it out.
But my input on this would be something in the emotive, rough direction.
lots of desperation and confusion in it.
Suicide? why not.
itΒ΄s more about capturing the feeling of the action than the action itself.
Indeed, a lot of different views can be taken, which is a sign of truly great art.
To me the action itself is a part of the feelings toward it. One can see someone aiming a gun at someone else and see a feeling of hatred, but if that person is in fact aiming at a poisoness snake, hes saving a life rather than trying to end one.
That or I simply overanalyze everything. All in all its still a great work, made even better by the broadness of the views that can be transcribed from it.

PLEASE do not shoot your boob off. I swear to God whatever your boob did to piss you off, I'm sure you two can talk it out. It doesn't have to be this way...

weΒ΄ll discuss it, I promise.
Phew! I'm glad I could help out. If i can just save one boobie a day from getting shot, i feel like I'm really contributing something to society.
