Artist's Comments

"William took to the basement. He needed someplace dark. Soon everything would be better. Soon everything would change."

....

Fiberglass, resin, cotton cloth, and latex over wood/wire frame. Bolted to ceiling.

*The "Silent Hill" comparison has been coming up a lot and I take that as a compliment, but no, this is not meant to be a spin on the game. Thank you for all the kind words!

William by ~DerekWalborn is a very dark and disturbing piece like something out of a nightmare especially when coupled with wonderful texturing, lighting and the surrounding setting. The human like shape puts me in mind of something out of silent hill or perhaps a cocoon of some kind, though what may come out of it is best not guessed.

Wow. Was he made with this setting in mind? Where is he?
:iconderekwalborn:
He was made with that type of setting in mind but I didn't find that particular area until he was done. Luckily my friend let me use her basement.
:iconwindygo:
The reason I ask is because I do know a gallery that ended up using their basement, which doesn't look too different from your friends. It's a nice setting for a lot of the "grungy" pieces.
:iconadriand:

It is so refreshing to see a recent sculpture piece that I can appreciate on DA. This piece is my cup of tea, I do say. This piece, although with static construction, still has a way about it that shows movement -- like the body is curving up before it swings back crying muffled sounds. Well done! +fav
:iconcafeinomane:
Quite scary ! The surroundings fit too well, I had to convince myself it wasn't true...
