GGG MOTHER NATURE (Original Art)
Hello to all!
For today i would like to present to you this recently finished creation, it is a small sketch drawing that took me some time to consider done, it was created whit the intention to represent the idea of nature as the ultimate force, operating on all the different levels, throughout all the known existence, in this piece the idea begins to takes shape with the imaginary of the "Great Mother".
Detail of Face
The initial thought was to create a representation of this imaginary figure, present in the archetypes of the human mind and represented since time immemorial in human culture. This became reason to consider the "Mother" or Venus of Willendorf as a "imaginary" reference to start drawing, i started by adding to the imagined figure in the paper the attributes of the chosen reference, symbols for the intrinsic qualities of the "Mother Figure", and so this initial attributes appeared to function as a driving force that guided both the flow of thought, and the tip of the pencil at all stages wile creating this:
GGG MOTHER NATURE
Hand drawing (7.1x19.3)Blue color pencil over draft paper.
In the final drawing we have this female figure with her upper body surrounded by a drop of water, the legs below link with the feet, allowing her to stand firmly on this earth-like planet.
There are symbolic meanings for the attributes of to the different elements allowing for a intuitive interpretation of the piece, some details may be observed next:
Detail of Womb
In Her Womb appears the Flower of Live, the "secret" of all creation.
Detail of Planet
All of this was created without direct references, meaning that wile i was drawing i was not looking to images to guide me, for the planet as an example i did a search online, observed some images for a short period of time, closed the search and then worked from memory.
The mother figure has its origins on the ancient representations, this is the work referenced by my memory:
So to finish this presentation, i must say i could try to explain better all the meanings, connections and thoughts this work as presented to me, but to be fair the intention is for MOTHER NATURE itself to do that, so i leave you all with it; Use the comments if you have some thoughts on it that you would like to share.
"The intention of this art work as all the others i present here is to make the observer think, imagine, question!
The title off the work and the small introduction is a sort off guide line that represents some sense to the author , it doesn't fully describes the work as it's interpretation is free and personal.
