Time to sperg about the details. Left section is Bavad, right is Neseltahar. Both demons represented as illusions, so if you look closely, especially on the lower area, you'll notice their faces are made of a bunch of other shit. Upper Bavad is made of bits of sigils from the Ars Goetia. Sigils bleed into the lower section, so upper and lower areas are sort of connected, but only thematically. It ties to the fact that demons both are and aren't real. They technically don't exist, but their presence on the world cannot be understated. We simply gave them a name, but they were here first. I see them in the countless wars, the corruption, the fact we're all addicted to consuming shitty fucking slop (digital and physical). It's a superposition. So Neseltahar, who was originally a cat-chicken hybrid, is now a watermelon with hieroglyphs for facial features. He isn't there, but your pattern seeking brain will make you see him (if you're familiar with my art at least). That's how this works.
18 hour interactive artwork finally complete. Has blood, sweat and cough syrup on it.
Depicts two of the demons possessing me in their different forms. They're there but they're not. Iykyk.
