Your Bosch is so goddamn much better than mine it makes me sad.
How long did it take you to paint this....?Β I mean, the detail is on actually better than the Earth section of the original.

What's with the high school teachers? They are unified in liking Hieronymus Bosch (oops wrong spelled name) ahhh ah, quite one artist of the just around 3 artists they have in their life; I guess. Bosch is some great universe for model railway and the happenings on itΒ΄s truly with love designed inviroment on it
Well keep it going shitty school world!!!!

Hahaha your avatar makes everything quit right I guess. The shout by Munch, is just fine you know.
Heroin addict though... wasnΒ΄t able to work most othe time anyways
Idk dark times back then, just despair talks... here comes sickness

well i put this avatar like 10 years ago without thinking much. also i never heard of bosch from a highschool teacher but i wouldn't see the problem if every single teacher in the world was in awe before his work. Like it's a wrong thing that good artists get recognition once in a while...

Yea and nope. Bosch surly was that revolutionary stuff back then in the dutch hights.
The thing is, there is this lesson plan for high schools round there, and they got the choice to choose one artist outta two. Number one is Bosch out of the question, and two is who would have thought that, our beloved Munch and some other exponents of expressionism... And even if this sounds interesting enough for some of our promising talents. There will be tons of theoretically stuff to learn, like artists names, periods of art... etc. This will just sour the might have been nice subject, art.
ThatΒ΄s how the polics esp. minister of culture channels and frightens and bores the calculating youth into only some interest for zombieism. Like get it done and fade away, letΒ΄s make some money and satisfy your parents by studying economics sth like that. You know there is this term of, unprofitable arts which is just burnt into the minds of every depressed and schizzo youngster. ItΒ΄s just a tool of the mass-psychology lemme saaaay, to make those nothings a clever decision
Ps. so is europe

This is incredible. Personally, I see it as a critique as well as a reference. A step along the way from Bosch. The natural world in your painting is what is eerie and the human element its usual self, sustained by its idiot curiosity and inability to comprehend the context in which it exists. For me, in your painting, Nature observes as well as being made the subject of abuse. Humans continue to be ridiculous, abusive and ignorant whilst retaining a pose of elegance and progress. For me, it is an image of the circular argument in which humanity has entrapped itself and much of Nature.
A breathtaking, and diligent, rendition.

thank you so much for your interpretation
So it can be seen as an depiction of mankind; while we are one with nature in our composition, we are haunted with ideas that only us have access to, and that neither us or anything can fully understand.

I can see this now you have mentioned it. I think the viewer will be influenced by the way the world seems to them today, the way, perhaps, Bosch felt when he did his paintings, which are very disturbing and critical, but have an overarching religious didactic of the times that no painter dared to transgress or he would be unlikely to be asked to do another commission, at the very least. They hid some things, like the cathedral sculptors, in their depictions.
In our time, I saw in your painting, the world of Nature as still separated from the human consciousness and by the same errors of judgement humans tend to make. Death we do not understand, whereas death has been accepted by Nature. Why we are here and what we ought to do about our consciousness of time and place is, to me, what motivates this strange attempt we make at integration with Nature that cannot succeed because we haven't accepted our inclusion as part of Nature in our post-religious conversion to monotheistic belief systems.
I think your painting would invoke a lot of different opinions in viewers but the prevailing concern that humanity has somehow lost its direction and its place might come out quite strongly as we sink further into the conundrum of who we are and can't find a way to take Nature with us. We are in love with Androids now, instead. I don't know why we can't but I suspect that religions have given us what Paganism did not ask us to accept. Post-pagan religion has asked, and often demanded, humanity to be something outside of Nature whilst still existing in it. As this is impossible in our dimension, I think we suffer the constant inability to match ourselves to Nature. Your painting makes me think of how strongly this affects us, compared, for example, with the rabbits gazing at the pond feature. They seem somehow unaffected by the people riding the swans. The birds that look out of the scene at us here and there seem to be asking what this spectacle of disorientation might be that has emerged in the middle of their once connected universe.
One could spend hours dissecting your painting and discussing it. It's amazing.

Yes i agree that the dissociation of man and nature can be seen in this, and it is actually an underlying theme in many of my paintings. My art in general always oscillated on a pendulum between natural and artificial world. While i have been trying to find a single orientation for what i create, i can't help but make pieces of either natural or artificial themes, having trouble to find the middle. I guess it is part of the human condition of our time, which you described so well. It can also seem obvious on another painting, pathology of pride. Anyways, thanks for taking the time to write to me, i do appreciate it.

For many other paintings I noted the reference to Bosch but for this one i dont feel like it, because anyone who knows bosch will get it and for the others, i dont feel the need to educate deviantart's kawaii community
