Exellent use of repitition of form, direction and pattern creating a group with one isolated and different, an unknown ritual feel, The nature elements give it a spooky primitive element.
The only thing artistically I can think of to improve this piece is the placement, I see it in a tropical setting.
Im gessing that the materials this is made from could'nt hold up in the outside elements for to long though.
Beautifull work.

Very good piece! You have worked very much with the details, and the colouring is very good too, also I like the textures on the children's skin. The masks are amazing, I want one full-size! They look very alive!
Congratulations for this great piece of art, and also for the DailyDeviation, I think you deserve it :nod:

Wow, alot of meaning is conveyed through this for me; The way all the children look identical; all beautiful. And the only thing that divides them is the difference between those who have, and those who don't have. The child who has the food, fertile land and a good home (possibly not intentional but shown to me by the white picket fence, also seeming to represent a divide between the children of first world countries and those less fortunate), and then the many many more less fortunate children whose hands are empty and appear wanting and instead seem like scavangers. I don't know if that was supposed to be what was shown but thats definately what stood out for me. I also love the detail of the designs and the children's stance (was that supposed to signify anything particularly? It stands out much more that a basic stance.) The children's forms are perfect!
... Sorry to say so much, I'm not normally so analytical about sculptures. But I really like this one! ^^;

Perhaps this is what the rest of the third world looks like to us in the USA. I wonder how someone from a third world country would "re-create" this scene using their perspective.

Artist! Speak! What were your meanings and interpretations behind this one?

Very intriguing work.....

....the sculpture is very meaningful and pretty psychoanalytically deep.

Excellent work!! Very beautiful.
A tiny bit of critique, although it`s more of a taste thing thn a good point... I do not like the fence and the bit of grass.. It somehow takes the attention away from the real story of the piece. or it unnessesarily underlines the story which is already clear enough to me by the figures and the composition..
