Machina Viscera Art Piece
Meet the Creator: Laure Patera
This piece is 21.5 in. x 27.5 in. x 0.75 in. including the frame, with a medium of charcoal and acrylic paint. At first, I used this piece as a way of practicing drawing depth and experimenting with charcoal, but I changed my original plan to turn this piece into a monster. My idea of the scariest kind of monster is along the lines of cosmic horror, where this creature is more so impossible to understand rather than simply scary. There is no discernible beginning or end to its body, and it seems to have eyes watching from all angles. The title is inspired by the Latin phrase "Deus Ex Machina," meaning "God of the Machine," but with a play on the word "visceral".
