Hi Dennis
Some amazing work there, but a little hard to see the detail. Are you able to post the pictures in a little bigger size?
Thanks

Stunning pieces, dennis. I'd love to see some bigger piccies. See jpegcompress (or smallimage on mac) about getting big pictures below the 100kB limit.
Are you of the H. R. Giger school of design? Love it.Those are my principles, and if you don't like them . . . well, I have others.

Dennis - awesome pieces mate! They also seem a wee bit creepy. The table reminds me of a spider, while the chair looks like it comes from a scifi movie set.

Not acceptable - the pic size that is
... I really want to see a bigger pic of that table at the minimum. I'm really impressed with the design.
What school are you going to?

Hmmm... a wee bit creepy? Scifi movie set? That's the idea methinks. Look for the work of the magnificent Swiss artist H.R. Giger, designer of the alien in the movie Alien. I went to the H. R. Giger museum in Gruyère, and that's majorly creepy. He pretty much invented the biomechanoid style. Some of his work disturbs some people, and is not for the prudish. I'm a huge fan...

here goes, you asked for it!...pics of Dennis Parker's piece.
Click on the normal thumbnail at bottom for the 80k pic
.
Click on this
thumbnail for higher quality 680k pic..
The original file was a couple of meg, nice and sharp. Must have been a good Digi.
Beautiful work Dennis. Could we have a brief run down on how you constructed the piece and maybe some progress pics if you have them?I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones.

Biomechaniod style - fantastic.
The Australian had a piece yesterday where scientists have developed a way to fuse skin to metal - really helpfull to amputees that have a prostetic limb that is screwed to the bone and exits the body... a new generation of prostetic limbs awaits.
I'm waiting to see the first 'body art fetishist' that gets metal horns attached to their skull that then stick out through the skin. :eek:
Bring on the cyborgs.... I'll put my hand up for a bit of 'augumentation'.
Seeing the new pic does justice to your work Dennis.... good stuff, mate.
It'll look even better with a few cobwebs hanging off the metal 'framework'.
