After a hiatus that lasted most of this year, the artist known as Whiskey Monday continues turning Second Life screenshots into a genuine art form, and her very latest images are particularly arresting: There's "Moths Among the Whisperings", sampled above which you need to see in its full glory here. But there's also "Was Rorschach." and "Asunder", and those are also worth contemplating too. (You could look at one each day of this long weekend!)
As it happens, I profiled Ms. Monday a couple years ago, and here's what she says about her art:
"These photos are created in much the same way my best writing is created -- from a place in me that feels rather than sees. While I've always turned those feelings into words quite easily, creating a visual just takes the process a step further. I like to think that the image enriches the story I'm telling, and offers a dimension that words don't always reach. And for me personally, there are times when the feelings I want to express are too difficult to share with words. Words are too stark sometimes. A visual can help me express those feelings without the need to explain more than I'm willing or able."
Having read that, see what she's expressing here.
