Image description: A crude drawing of a stick man sitting in a chair in an unusual position. Right leg is bent at the knee with the sole of the foot flat on the seat and the knee up towards the chin. The left leg is bent at the knee where the lower leg is flat against the seat and the foot is on the seat under the buttocks.
Classic pose. I’ve also been known to sit fully cross-legged on stools. I only recently discovered they make cross-legged chairs for weirdos like me.
You could have at least used a different color for the labels. Or chair and person, then you wouldn’t need the labels.
I was going for chromatic minimalism.
I hope it is known that I know nothing about art, but I’m having fun searching for artists or art terms to describe my style 😂
Edit: Just for you.
Now they look kind of unbalanced and using their arms for stability.
I think your art is so avant garde, people just don’t understand yet
It took me 30s to understand this image.
Is that fast or slow? Like you could be really stupid and this is fast or you could be really smart and this is slow. 😉
There is a coloured version down in the comments if that makes it easier to understand.
It took me too long to understand the image; I wasn’t able to differentiate the labels from the limbs.
I don’t struggle with it, I just do it.
Not sure on your age, but as you age you realise it’s not been good for you. Particularly the lower back. I’m 35+. Luckily I’m active in fitness so it could be worse if someone is mainly sedentary.
As someone who was significantly more sedentary, and lived in a environment where I couldn’t stand up straight for a few years, yeah, I was getting issues from this around 16+, late 20’s now and I have scoliosis and an asymmetry of my thorax…
Robot backs when?
If you don’t mind me asking, what was the environment? That sounds miserable.
Oh that aspect was, other aspects were less bad; when I was a teenager, I kept asking my mum if I could have the basement for a hangout spot/workshop, she eventually let me.
When I started down there I was just a tad bit shorter than the doorways, by the time I left, I was having to crouch when I stood under the regularly ceilings.
Some aspects were good; it let me develop a love for taking things apart and rebuilding them, designing and building things from scratch, working with friends on projects, etc.
Some aspects were less than optimal; I had a 3d printer running almost 24/7 down there, creating a lot of nasty dust + I used to smoke back then, so the air quality of the space was terrible.
The big mistake was likely sleeping down there, being in that environment basically 24/7 was certainly unhealthy.
Okay that sounds a lot less insane than the mental picture I had. I was like, “mines? Some weird construction…? Snow piercer?” But it sounds like just regular level younger people doing obsessive things to the point of resembling self-harm.
