Lethal Cmpant Is A Beuaitufl Name For A Baby Girl

Something bad has been happening to me lately. I keep saying “oh a puppy” when i see something i find cute. I was on a walk on the cliffs and I saw a slug and said it because i thought I was alone, but then an old lady on her walk teleported behind me and said “Im afraid not…”

I also forgot to mention! The very obvious theme of motherhood here, especially when you look at Sarto’s other works, infants and mothers are very prevalent.

One of the first things I thought when I saw this piece for the first time was the way it feels to raise a child while being surrounded by violence. To nurture a child, but you cannot change what they’ll be exposed to.

Now that I’m looking for common threads between Sarto’s works, consumption and predation are both extremely relevant.

The framing of this piece COULD even be to suggest the woman and baby are also among the meat to be consumed, thus the name— they’re in the butcher-shop as another product, not as predators themselves.

I still don’t understand the frog symbolism, but that’s another frequent mention.

I’ve been thinking about this piece for weeks. I keep coming back to it trying to figure it out. I’ve seen some discussion, but no interpretation has ever really resonated with me.

There’s nothing particularly uncanny about the woman or baby, the surroundings seem normal for them. The lighting is bright, the room is cluttered but not obscured. The meat frames them in, but I’m not sure if that feels like an oppressive force.

The surroundings are visceral, but not scary in any way. Despite the raw meat, there’s no blood in the room, It seems clean.

The only conclusion I can come to is it’s about survival, food, and eating. The baby breastfeeding vs the butchers room. That comes back to the title, though, which doesn’t make much sense to me in that context.

There’s also several feminist and class conscious readings you could do of this; but I’m still not sure.

Please help me figure it out, I’d love to hear other people’s thoughts on this piece!!!

This is TexanCannibal’s oc on artfight!!!! Uuugh I fucking love him. This is one of my favorite pieces I’ve ever made.

There’s two wolves inside you. One wants disabled + ‘disfigured’ people to be depicted without being portrayed as unnerving or horror. The other thinks horror, gore, and killing people is fucking awesome.

You draw disabled murderers because you’re ableist, I draw disabled murderers because I love murder. We are not the same

Headcanon that horn color = blood color. Methinks subspaces horns used to be more red, but after he got poisoned, his blood turned more pink.

No idea how this would work with coil, hes an enigma. I looked at gameplay and it looks like only his crystal horn changes color, so i assume its the crystal at work

Also dyeing your horns is more like painting your nails, and you can put fun designs and patterns if you want. Maybe even the glitter clear coat

"And adding to that I also want to say that their bones match their blood and horns. I just like different colored teeth lol"

explain your gender in 10 words or less without using boring words like “male”, “female”, “nonbinary”, “masculine”, “feminine” or “androgynous”.

go!

I LOVE when children who juuuust barely understand ten percent of something find somebody (a toy or a smaller child, usually) who understands zero percent and they’re like “come hither and I shall take you under my wing and teach you my instant wisdom.”

you guys were actually posting about cannibalism specifically as a metaphor for love and desire? i've been posting about cannibalism because i think it's hot to eat another guy alive
