Adam-Scott-Miller β€” Lobal Warning

Description "Lobal Warning" is my first full-step into a territory where I'm attempting to emotively and numinously map my mind's contents of the world. I have for long made work about revelation, but I feel a bridge must be made across the gap to ground that 'clear light' into this world that resounds with cruelty, ignorance, suffering, and disconnection. I hope this attempt yields fruitful resolve. I consider this piece to be my overall finest work and a checkpoint marking a new beginning.
Your response is especially appreciated.

You must have been inspired by Gojira. A lot Of details seem to refer to their album " From Mars To Sirius " where there are song s like : " Flying Whales " ; " Global Warming " ; " OcΓ©an Planet ". If you don't, have a look.

I read an essay written about Argentinian writer Jorge Luis Borges that stated summarily that pen to pad gray-scale is color, but eye to pad is color to gray-scale. Either way I think they starve for each other. Love this painting, PEACE!

your attention in this work is inspired. <3 thank you for creating this depiction... every brushstroke is laden with intent...
perhaps to paint a picture which describes the agony of our lessons which led us back to truth..?
well, lovely geometry as always

The idea of an internal Source projected from a body not disconnected from Suffering, but intimately involved with it comes across strongly

it seams like the sheilding of the eternal child from the harshness of the world, but the child still sees "with eyes unclouded by hate" and is confused for lack of a better word. I really like all the transitions, the mushroom cloud/nebula/whale is particularily impressive.

Why whales?

It creeps me out, because when I listen to Lustmord or Sunn O))) I literally see whales in the upper part of my vision or if I'm on the open, the sky.
Also, when I'm on certain things I feel like I'm "in" a whale..weird.

beautifull work, and of yourse you are right, humanity does not diserve the term "crown of creation". It should be a spiritual metaphor for our deepness and awereness but at least we take it for mindf*cking and egow*nking...specially in the spiritual part of the ego...

Postive energy can affect change. Too much awarenes can create negative feedback. Balance is key. (At least that is my perception of it.) Very nice.

I am so happy that I had a link to this gallery sent to me! This is beautiful work!I am sorry that I don't have the experise to give you an advanced critique, but may I say that I think your work is thought provoking and exquisitely detailed. I love the web of what looks like nerves in vermillion surrounded by that spring green. It really sends electric energy throughout this piece.
I am really enjoying your gallery!

An excellent attempt at bridging the minds gap created by discerning. As said previously this have a feeling of universial love / compassion and openess.

I would be very interested to hear (read) how you approach your work, techniques etc, if it is not an imposition.

PanCthulhu [2007-06-19 12:03:36 +0000 UTC]

Haha, I like the pun in the title.
Lovely work. The vagueness of the some of the images gives you a sense of the intangibility and confusion of the mind. The sharp colours of the nerves enhance the atmosphere as well as creating a good sense of depth and holding the piece together well. The vague figure in the centre makes the image seem personal yet archetypal. Very expressive.

"but I feel a bridge must be made across the gap to ground that 'clear light' into this world that resounds with cruelty, ignorance, suffering, and disconnection."
hmm, i guess this is what really gets me. Your view of this world. Is it really this painful, this ignorant?maybe its just me that is ignorant at the end of the day, but i see world full of potential beauty for the one who has the eye to see it and bring the light trough......
is that what this is,n i just dont get it?
other than that- i feel too young to comment in any constructive way.... amazyng work!
