Daily Deviation

Given 2008-12-06
The suggester tells me that "The ominous energy of this work always makes me pause." It most definitely does the very same to me! The idea of individuality by ~immanuel is part of a series of impressive imagery in which the artist has taken it to the extreme and exclusively used black, and so forth relied purely on light to display texture and shape. And he does it to perfection! ( Suggested by ~abuseofreason and Featured by `IreneLangholm )

I know I'm about 4 years late on this but I just stumbled across your art on my wanderings through the internet tonight and I just wanted to tell you how stunning this picture is in particular to me. It reminds me very much of my experience being a soldier in the US army which is how I discovered how essential and important my individuality was to me. Kind of a 'You don't know what you have until you give it up' thing. I am curious, what do you think of the mandatory military service requirement in Finland?

Hi!
When I had a show of my art in Eslingen Germany I meet this GI from US. He served in Iraq. Had to say bay bay to all my stereotypes about American solders. It was so cool that after the show he visited Finland on my birth day.
I have disgust to authority and these images come from that. I show my fears in the most beautiful way.
Hymm Finnish army.. I ques its a necessary evil as we have that long porder.

I really like the atmosphere. It's dark, hard. No-face idea- excellent. Great shadows. But one question- done in color , and edited in photoshop or something like this, or made in this cold shadows ? Sorry for bad English, I hope that you understand me xD
