why?

[rabidbadger]

Why do I, and have since age 15, find Gigers artwork so dang erotic? Oh cause I saw his erotic art when I was 15 in a Penthouse once. No links, I'll let the brave ones search for themselves... :D

I thought this was going to be about the band "Why?" :(

[rabidbadger]

sorry. :(

His work is full and found. Even straighter objects are rounded. Most people tend for find rounder things more sensual and erotic.

Well he did draw lots of sexual things along with phalic headed aliens with erect penises and very human like female aliens with angle faces.
He uses many angles and round and phallic and much erotic images.

When I was 15, I found most things erotic.

I've always found Giger's work to be the finest showcase of the beauty that can be found amongst the grotesque. I have Necronomicon I and II as my coffee table books (though I have yet to get a coffee table), a poster of Anima Mia as well as a Giger inspired tattoo.

That man has done stuff with airbrush that is still unequaled to this day. Which is not to downplay his architectural work (I would love Giger's chairs and dinner table).

My dream dining room.


Returning to the shallow end of the pool, I would say the generous use of penes and spread legs probably contribute to the erotic feelings. Giger didn't call some of his work "erotomechanics" for nothing. :)

wow, (the dining room) and hey, show us the tattoo!

Reminds me of Beetlejuice.

This shot is from about 5 years ago when the tattoo was no more than a week, or so old. The colours have dulled a bit since then, but all the detail still remains.

Plus the skin is still baby soft, as I never stopped applying the lotion there.

Yeah that's right; Buffalo Bill had taught me well. :)

[rabidbadger]

cooollll! your own design?

It was a collaborative effort between me and the tattoo artist. I originally just wanted a biohazard tattoo. When I went in to ask for it, I was asked what I wanted the sign to look like. I hadn't really thought of it until then (it was/is my first tattoo). While I was contemplating what design I wanted for the biohazard, I was looking through the artist books, and I came upon one guy who did Giger stuff. So I met with him and we went over the basics of what I wanted. Then I came back a week later to go over the general concept and make necessary changes.

$250 and 3 hours later, I got my original design Giger-ish biohazard tattoo.
