Daily Literature Deviations - December 28, 2009

=DailyLitDeviations:iconDailyLitDeviations: reports, 6h 31m ago
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.

Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you :+fav: the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.

Beautiful Ideas #2

=Aegis-Strife:iconAegis-Strife: reports, October 16, 2006
Hello all and welcome to the second Issue of "Beautiful Ideas" and thanks everyone for the warm welcome the first issue has had.

I told you I wanted to keep this creative, so I am not going to limit this to just show conceptual works. There will be a theme every week to keep this interesting and amusing.

This issue's theme is "Conceptual galleries".

This week's selections has been made only selecting works from galleries such "Photomanipulation > Conceptual" or "Photography > Conceptual". Sadly, there is not a conceptual section for traditional medias, so this week the selection from Traditional Art have been picked from "Collague" and "Surreal" galleries.

And for whom doesn't know what this article is about, I'll summarize telling you that it is a selection of conceptual works made with some nice aesthetical sense. You can read more about this Article goal on the first Issue: [link]

Well, after this little explanation, let's go!

PHOTOMANIPULATION > CONCEPTUAL

"Autumn" by ~justangel it's a minimal yet effective personal representation of autumn. The well developed atmosphere and highly integrated elements makes this photomanipulation speak loud!


"Illicit" by =Saunter is another well done piece with a mystery inside it. You can think in so many things trying to get the concept behind this one. But...Isn't the apple the most illicit fruit? Personally, I think it is, by so many reasons (;


"Aphephobia" by =DoNotAttempt shows us the representation of a very strange but true phobia: to be touched by anything, even the smallest butterfly. Again, some more mystery: The model's face. I'm sure it's not a happy one.


"Seeking Salvation" by *mikebeecham gains points because of its excellent technicall executtion. With only two dominant elements he tells a story without an end. Find it by yourself! (:


"Heaven is near" by *YagaK is a very emotive piece, but yet, minimal again. Did you notice the pattern? Even if you agree with the theme or not, the concept is clear, understandable and strong.

PHOTOGRAPHY > CONCEPTUAL

"Collision" by *BlackMamba. In which one? Very clever. Excellent composition and colour scheme.


"Drowning" by ~sadsolitude is again a new refreshing image to show us another way to show an almost cliche concept. Drowning in what, you may ask? That's the point (;


"Wavechaser" is a great surreal example of minimal conceptualism by =Stew-Luvulongtime. Original, yet atmospheric and though-provocking.


"Gifted" by *Mr-Frenzy. Maybe eggs have been used so many times, but you can't deny that this image has something special. The highest combo! Translate it into a real life scheme and you get it.


"Wisdom" comes through experience and after a vital process. I think *ectrhoi knows that well.

TRADITIONAL ART

"Pretty skirt, honey" by ~unreflected is somehow funny, but makes you think in something more. Interesting point of view in this one about fashion.


"Lilly as a lesbian" by ~themadcellist is maybe harder to understand than the other features because of how much is going on. The symbology and conceptual mystery will grab your attention for sure!


"Dark series: Allienation" by ~odietamo speaks loud. Beautiful representation with a strong message behind. The concept of the sheep about humans, remember it? Now represented with real people.


"The insomniac" by *CarrieAnnBaade is another surreal and marvellous representation. A very personal way to represent a real pain.


Well, these have been the features for this Issue, I hope you have enjoyed it as much as I did, and remember that if you have any suggestions or questions about this Article go note me (but do not suggest yourself!).

Next week's theme: It's a secret..do you want me to ruin it? ;p
