3DX images are often continuous cycles of inspiration. Someone is inspired to create art and so the viewer is then inspired by it. What they do with that inspiration – imagine, draw, create, or masturbate – is up to them.
We All Go To Heaven is a very interesting piece for just that reason. Inspired by the world’s universal loss of H.R. Giger, whose art lay the foundations for the Xenomorphs from the Alien and Predator franchises, it does three things. It creates something beautiful from something terrible, poses the traditional absolute light vs. absolute darkness question, and inspires thought with a statement.
The angel and the monster are a very common theme in media. What excites us? Is it the possibility for redemption for the monster or the excitement of a fallen angel? Who do we see ourselves as? These monsters have killed thousands and, if we let our minds wander to the next panel, possibly cause our angel to fall far from Heaven herself. But still she bravely stands to face it.
What I really love about the angel in this is that nothing on her is purely, blindingly white. Though she stares into darkness, her bra and thong have gold outlines and her wings hold a touch of blue. Even her hair isn’t golden, it’s more of a dusty white color. It could suggest that she isn’t perfect and heavenly, though heaven sent. But if she looks into the abyss long enough, the abyss might just come out to play.
