So I'm reading this funny book by Marion Zimmer Bradley where a powerful sorcerer that is also a scientist, conducted some experiments on humans beings and managed to create hybrid species. After his creative experiments, the most unlikely creatures imagined of all walked the earth. Body of a man or woman with animal heads, hair like feathers and stuff like that. The whole book is a metaphor/allegory and it actually speaks about racial hatred and every kind of discrimination. Ultimately it speaks about the way mankind has failed to accept and deal with difference.
Anyway...I was like BORED TO DEATH today with NOTHING to do, so I came up with this idea and decided to do this illustration just for fun. Hope you like it!
Olá amigos "blogueiros"! Como tem passado? Espero que estejam a aproveitar o fim de semana!
Tenho estado a ler um livro da Marion Zimmer Bradley, onde um poderoso feiticeiro, que é simultâneamente um cientista, ao realizar algumas experiências em seres humanos, conseguiu criar espécies híbridas. Após o seu acto criador, as mais estranhas criaturas passaram a caminhar entre os humanos. Seres com corpo de homem e cabeça de animal, com penas em vez de cabelos conviviam agora com os homens, que não perderam tempo e logo aproveitaram para os escravizar. Na realidade o livro é uma alegoria, e o seu verdadeiro tema é o ódio racial e todo o tipo de discriminação. A autora fala sobre a forma como a humanidade tem falhado ao longo da história em aceitar e lidar com a diferença.
Hoje estava a morrer de tédio sem NADA para fazer e esta ideia veio-me à cabeça. Decidi fazer esta ilustração para passar o tempo. Espero que gostem!
