Research Methodology; Number- University
Why do certain numbers have such superstitious beliefs? 666 and it's satanic associations was my next topic for research in this project. I looked into the history and theories of the popular superstition then generated ideas and chose images/people I felt could represent this. One of my outcomes was required to be 3D so I chose black wire as the predominant material for this satanically themed sculpture. It gives a harsh and eerie quality to my contemporary portrayal of the biblical seven headed beast. The iconic people I chose to illustrate for the heads represent the 666 associations, whether with satire- Dave Grohl who played the Tenacious D Devil, pop culture references- Damien from 'The Omen', or more serious representations- Charles Manson, infamous serial killer.
