[Animation work2]Places of the mind

Inspiration

The film Seven(1995) is my inspiration
Seven means The Seven Deadly Sins - Pride、Wrath、Sloth、Greed、Envy、Gluttony、Lust

These seven deadly sins come from human nature，is root of them.

Also in China, a monster who we called 饕餮 is a mythical ferocious animal in Chinese fairy tale.This monster means glutton, he is one of Dragon's son,maybe fith.

According to history record,no one knows what is he like,but most people said he has no body,only have a head and a big mouth. He eat everything so he is a symbol of Greed.

BUT one thing we should know is that no one knows what exactly is he like.

These pictures only show image from other people.

In my opinion,this monster live in everyone's mind,of course include i

So i want to create a nightmare world and to display people's greed

The aim of this work is we = appetency

Also these images are awesome but i still want to accord to history record and my character is only a symbolice.

So i only want to highlight his characteristic—BIG MOUTH

Monster like eating，this one like wolf and tiger，and most people guess their image come from these two animals 

some sketches

Figure8: Tiger (sources:https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b9/P.t.altaica_Tomak_Male.jpg

At last i combine wolf and tiger to create a image 

Final work is a painting

This painting means we all have a monster in our deep mind=greed

some of our appenecty is huge and black means monster can eat everything 

everything=money，food，power and so on

we and monster are same ，we are one.

There one monster inside means our appenecty is infinite.
