Excellent image, I don't know about you, but it makes me think about life as a whole and how damn lucky we are to be conceived at all. well done

I wish my bus rides were this inspiring! Great image.

far from it, kase. all I think is how disgusting it is to bring to life someone without asking him/her first - social wont aside...

Strange but very well done... Great imagination! Xronia polla!! tora m'afto pou egrapses pio pano, m'evales se skepseis... :-)

Good point, Christos. But how is it possible to ask them?

good counter-point, Susan. it isn't :) so, we should first ponder on whether the child wants to be born in this damn world, instead of having the baby anyway, just because it fills our puny little selves :) ta

I disagree. Maybe we do not have a choise. We have the power to terminate a life. Does this mean that this is the right choise. No!. That is actually the meaning of life. You srtart from hell and you you end in paradise. Maybe Sofoklis (ancient greek writer) was right, maybe we are the children of luck, but we have control over our own evidence. Maybe this world is not as bad as we fist think. This is just the cover. You can not apreciate life if you have not lived.And in the end who we think we are , are we so smart to decide who lives and who dies. Our history has proved us wrong many times.

one word: why do parents get to decide whether I want to live. that is, whether they can provide me with adequate protection against unhappiness? in any given OBJECTIVE system of morality (say of an alien race) this would be marked as wrong. but since the instinct of reproduction is so strong that we can't avoid it, we term it "right".

Starting to tour through your gallery and wondering how the hell I've missed it. My comment is philosophic rather than artistic, and consists of two questions: 1.-Can we possibly deem anything as "right" or "wrong"? Aren't those terms used only by republican politicians? 2.-Do we really WANT to be protected against unhappiness?

Republicans? Well you DO have an audience!I disagree with you for this time... the point is a little more subjectively overviewed than I would preffer it to be.Think of it on the contrary then. Think of the distruction point of view. Life is something hard to give but easy to take. When you face it in such terms I presume you shall understand that we prefabrically demand the "right" thing as to be the option that does not destroy.IT is tehe best option when the decion is not completely compliable by those in terms with it. As you may destruct one allowed to still live... but you may not always let live what you have destroyed. Life IS a mess.. in all forms of it.. even the life cycle of events maybe and not ONLY our lives.They tend to grow and proceed after they start.. you can't keep it under control all the way. Sooo well at that point I must agree. you shouldn't attempt a decision such unless you can tolerate the flow of it, financially or morally or what everily is needed for it.

I'm not going to involve myself in the philosophical issues (I would just end up swimming and drowning in an ocean of ambiguity, as is usual for me) but in the purely visual sense I just want to acknowledge and praise the lateral thinking behind the conception of this image. Half the battle of being an artist is to be able to see things within other things (Dali being of course the master of this)... well maybe not half, but I'm not going to bog myself down with that detail either 'cos I'm sure you know what I'm meaning anyway. I'm only unsure about the function of the biohazard label... but would surmise that it's to accentuate the concept of clinical coldness behind such "decisions", shedding light on the moral issues...
