Title...?? Ok yeah!!! It doesn't make any sense but can't think of any thing else at the moment. This was an assignment we did at school more than a year ago. Our goal was to make something different with human image with different application of a traditional media + meaningful concept should be involved too. I picked oil as media. And realism as usual. The skin texture is applied as an experiment which successfully worked. After colouring the whole arm, I scattered some loose thread on it and then sprayed black paint. After lifting the thread this is what I got. I simply said to the jury the skin is mutated by unpleasent ordeals of urban polutions and etc etc. Well I think you guys can get the idea.

This picture is very expressive and powerful. For the way I see it is that you drew something that is mutated from pollution,as you said. And your talent is by far the best I have ever seen. This picture is breathtaking and through my eyes this is your way of speaking out, letting the world know how you feel. Great work, keep it up.

Hmm, quite interesting. Perhaps being trapped in that rock (which now is broken) allowed overheating from the earth to occur, but now the rock has been broken and the mutant can escape. Is it alive? Well, regardless, it looks cool and it sounds like you used an interesting and original technique.

2 Farah 'Immortelle' Ahmad replies: "Well yes it has to be alive as I did represented them as alive humans but mutated ones.
And technique was original ofcourse. So far I know it was pretty much accepted only from technical point of view, not by the less logical and more fantasical theme."

1 Farah 'Immortelle' Ahmad replies: "Hehe..haunting is right. To be very honest, I'm really surprised to see how much this piece is appreciated here, 'cause my jury rejected the whole thing in just a second. Well none taken ofocurse. In institution........... life is difficult.2 thanks a lot.2"

A product of human hands and a bit of poison,
yet it is beautiful.

What a different piece, bravo.
