'love' by ~kontur is so gestural, i was shocked to find out the piece was done digitally. i can't stop looking at this, because it invokes hard emotion. the bold hues and semi-linear movement work together very well in this. (Featured by `alphaosiris)

Every strand makes it easy to see how life is so complicated. Love being so very difficult or easy.. is just another strand in a strand which is crazy.. because yeah. Brilliant.

I love that each of your peices is really open to its own interpretation... this one means alot to me because of a situation that I'm going through right now... I love the sections coming down to where the hands meet... it's almost as if they are blows seperating the hands.

Hope is the quintessential human delusion; at once the source of our greatest strength and weakness.

What is that behind the couple? A mound of flesh? This speaks to me more about the inability to distinguish Love from Lust.

thanks for dropping an expressed 'silence' here.

my initial idea behind it is the dialectic that comes with love. being attracted and needing the relationship, but also being distracted and full of fear of towards the other. overcoming this fears then is (a first step towards) love for me.
But as always: i don't want to coin the interpretations of my images and i am very glad for other inspiring ideas as well. further, i can understand that you see lust in there as well; the muscles are quite strong and tensed, which makes it 'violent' and therewith connected to lust.
