The intro:



This response will feature photos, music, and written words. It will not be a short read and I will not be concise.
The symbols I'm going to focus on are: death, nimbus clouds, the heart, and Earth in the sky.

That's one I've never seen before @DrX. I think it's pretty dope in this context. We'll start there.

The Earth in the sky represents heaven on Earth to me. What's real on Earth is heaven. What was already here before we built modern civilization is real. Which are Family. Community. & Codependency.

It looks like death is carrying those black kids, or child like adults, from the promised land to the bizarro promised land they want to go to. That's why they look excited. Buts it's a psychotic happiness. It looks drug induced.

All of our happiness is drug induced. You can't tell me average people aren't happy if they don't get their daily coffee or food stuffed with artifical sweeteners, GMO based ingredients, and brought to them by the exploitation of people somewhere in the world.


They're riding on a nimbus cloud which is a symbol of divinity. It's golden. Which is also a color associated with God, angels, and sacred figures.

Death's full name is the angel of death. An angel needs a halo. Nimbus clouds are halos to me. Halos come in the form of golden rings, flames, glowing light, and the colors white and gold.

The grass is greener on the other side, right? The artifical grass is greener than the real grass because it doesn't have to adhere to the same natural laws as natural grass.



What does this fake grass produce? Fake shyt. Imitations of real things. The shapes and colors may be more appealing than the real versions but a real person needs real shyt to thrive.

The grass has a classic red heart growing from it. The human heart isn't shaped like this :wub:

The color is not red40.

Red40 is used to dye meat and other food to make it that red color people love. It doesn't occur in nature btw. But that color is appealing to the eye and sells. Just like fake love.

Our lust for it has aligned us with death. We're happily traveling towards to our own destruction.

The human heart:
ae080ae83b9d4c8dac70dbbff00e4941.jpg


The fake idea of love is much more appealing. What magazines and Disney have shown us all for decades is what love is to us.

Maybe that's why we're so lonely and unfulfilled. We don't seek real love because it's less appealing than the artifical one.

Interlude:


"Every man has his own heaven. The difference is the way he envisions it. I got a question, if a man can make his own heaven can he make his own path to get to it too?"


Before I wrap this up I'd like to say seek real things in your life. Know what's real.

Seeking and consuming fake shyt usually comes from fear and anxiety created by society to force you consume fake shyt until you die. Start the video at a minute 39 seconds.








The outro:
"Hey yo, it's poison, ecstasy, coke
You say it's love, it is poison,
schools where I learned they should be burned, it is poison,
physicians prescripting us medicine which is poison,
doctors injecting our infants with the poison,
religion misoverstood is poison"



I humbly present the future, the past, and the present. With great humility I present to you the conductor of pulled heart strings throughout our community. With elation and excitement I now present to you The Other Side, by @DrX

So did you produce this or ?
Naw. I'm shyt at things like this. I'm a dumb jock. I like to run fast and kick soccer balls. I've been known to turn a phrase from time to time but that's about it. I'm not very talented and I'm not smart enough to produce anything like this.

Honestly I just wanted @DrX to know someone is thinking about his art rather than just seeing it. Someone is having an emotional response to his art and not just seeing art.

Weezer stopped making tongue in cheek music because nobody appreciated it. Dave Chapelle walked away from millions because people were laughing at him not with him. Sometimes attention can harm an artists because it's superficial.

i appreciate it bro....its actually an interesting perspective...that why i made it...i want ppl to really think....i get 0 satisfaction out of creating shyt with no meaning...like flowers n shyt

"It looks like death is carrying those black kids, or child like adults, from the promised land to the bizarro promised land they want to go to. That's why they look excited. Buts it's a psychotic happiness. It looks drug induced."

thats interesting, i didnt even think of it like that.....your assessment actually isnt far off.....its dope that u took the time to figure it out....thats what art is all about tho....making ppl think or feel

this one is actually my darkest piece by far.....i thought about not even adding it...because maybe i was projecting my bleak thoughts on to ppl, the truth meaning when i made is pretty dire to say the least...... esp if u dont believe in a heaven or hell...then really dire

but also my most cheerful piece, in appearance

@MoonGoddess u might like this write up

@DrX it took me hours to edit OP down to fit the coli attention span. Lol believe me. It hurt to do it. But I wanted to be the first to review your work too. Lol I don't ride the wave. I start the wave.

This is the darkest piece and happiest in presentation. I originally started this review with: "drx uses common symbols and colors in pop culture to vandalize it. This is graffiti. Represented by the Pegasus being vandalized and left bleeding without a rider. Pegasus is the partner of a God of the sea, and partner to Hercules. He's using happy colors and symbols of happiness to represent sadness and destruction of reality. The death of the dream."

Yeah I copied and pasted that shyt. If this thread caught any traction I was going to continue to the series.

i love it bro...and appreciate...its interesting too see how ppl interpret things....because we all got our own unique thoughts....its dope .....

when i made this piece i was feeling very low, and thinking and feeling very empty....seem with normal and fly away....but this piece in particular....actually was originality a mixture of clor and black and grey....but i thought it would make sense to make it brighter and more colorful

this piece is interesting, because theres not much optimism in it compared too some of the others...where those a teaching and dropping gems....its piece is very defeating .... well unless if a person believe in god....but for an atheist this is pretty grim with no happy ending
