The Homonoculi are beyond doll. "Psyche" is the first in a series that explores some of the darker corners of imagination.
This piece has presence... The pics don't do it justice. Let me know what you think.
great concept, too bad i can't see it in person, bet it's really powerful in the round. how big is it? it looks pretty big from here. where'd you get the wings, too? they seem like real ones... from a taxedermied bird or something

Thanks! (I love this piece)
Yeah, I think that she does have a presence that does not come across in pictures. Psyche isn't really that big, about 12 inches tall from head to, um, about 12 inches tall. The wings are real. I was driving home from campus, trying to figure out where I might get some wings for the doll, and a bird flew into my windshield. I know its a little morbid but I figured it was a wothy sacrifice on the bird's part. I took it home and taped it down with the wings spread in an old food dehydrator (one that I do not use for food) overnight, and voila! They kept the shape and there is no smell. I have a friend that does alot of work using animal parts, and she loved the innovation.
Anyway, that's probably more than you wanted to know...
Keep a look out though, I have 3 more pieces from the series ready to post as soon as I can find the cable for my camera...
Thanks again!

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 10 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
When it comes to community spirit, `Rushy is a shining example. From participating in devmeets, to providing positive encouragement to other artists, `Rushy can always be found demonstrating what it really takes to be a true deviant. It's without any hesitation that we are delighted to award the Deviousness Award for July 2009 to `RushyRead More
