Some of the anicient celtic sculptures look like machines

A celtic sculpture of 2 intertwining snakes like D.N.A. coiling together. Similar to the indian snakes that intersect at the chakra points. Also similar to the staff of Hermes.

 

I want to make the unexpected. The unusual and the irregular. Some thing that is not. What would be if the roles or rules were different?




Reading "The golden age of Irish Art" well i say reading looking at the pictures is a bit more accurate. Saw this on the street after. Recognised it from the book.

In the book "Art forms in nature" by Ernst Haeckel.There is repeating 6 sided, 5 sided and 8 sided shaped animals and plants throughout. Two of my roomates freaked out when i was going through the book as they thought it was my sketch book. If only.







Breaking up faces into geometry and the body.

Played with what if the lines of the mouth, eyes , nose continued.
