PSYCHOcatholic Posted May 26, 2004 Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 Alot of ppl can make there own conclusions on this pic. Yes, there is a weird coincidence that they all died at the age of 27, but in the picture they are all in a cafe in the clouds. Kind of like there own Heaven. Jim Morrison is writin music, Janis Joplin looks happy as ever, Jimmy Hendrix seems to be looking over at Kurt Cobain who was the most recent to die, so, he is only right at the door about to enter. The melting clock on the wall holds the meaning that they are gonna be there forever and time has no significance. There are some things im confused about as well though. The Ice Cream sundae, the rose of the floor under the clock. The lizard coming out of the boot on the far bottom right of the painting. The Ball on chain seems to be holding something down, and there are faces in the floor. Some of it is bind baffling, some of it is simple, just take it for what it is. Oh, another belief could be that Kurt Cobain is standing there maybe not allowed to enter cause he killed himself, and the common belief is if you kill yourself, you go to Hell.

scott Posted May 26, 2004 Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 OMG!!! That pics amazing and I can't believe I've never seen it before, though I must say I don't see how you didn't get the lizard reference, isn't it obvious? Jim Morrison used to always refer to himself as "The Lizard King" cool huh? I'm sure that there's even more stuff in there I'll have to look at it some more.

PSYCHOcatholic Posted May 26, 2004 Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 I guess i was never a big Doors fan. I got this mainly for Hendrix and Cobain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MuzikTyme Posted May 27, 2004 Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 Kurt Cobain who was the most recent to die, so, he is only right at the door about to enter. Oh, another belief could be that Kurt Cobain is standing there maybe not allowed to enter cause he killed himself, and the common belief is if you kill yourself, you go to Hell. Looks to me as if he's already entered since he's standing inside. I think because he's the newest arrival that it places him closest to the entrance. A very imaginative piece and tastefully surreal, reminiscent of Salvador Dali whom I'm sure the artist was inspired by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSYCHOcatholic Posted May 27, 2004 Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 Does anyone have any thoughts on the ball and chain hooked to the stake in the ground? :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuzikTyme Posted May 27, 2004 Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 I'm thinking it is in relation to a song that Janis Joplin sang, "Ball and Chain." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuzikTyme Posted June 24, 2008 Report Share Posted June 24, 2008 I wanted to bump this thread to read others' interpretation of this most inspiring and bittersweet piece of art. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Levis Posted June 24, 2008 Report Share Posted June 24, 2008 Interesting... but Brian Jones should be depicted too... he's a member of the club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuzikTyme Posted June 24, 2008 Report Share Posted June 24, 2008 True that, miss Radhi. Bizarre that so many musicians died at 27. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farin Posted June 24, 2008 Report Share Posted June 24, 2008 not really... of course I know the people in the 27 club, I just don't recognize anyone on the picture, so that I could try to give you my interpretation of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuzikTyme Posted June 24, 2008 Report Share Posted June 24, 2008 I just don't recognize anyone on the picture And I thought my eyes were bad... I've been unsuccessful so far in finding a larger photo. A magnifying glass might be useful about now, unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with the first paragraph, but I dont think he would be standing there not allowed to enter, because he's in hell for killing himself. Wouldn't overdosing on drugs also send you to hell ?

Farin Posted June 24, 2008 Report Share Posted June 24, 2008 also he's standing in the door, not in front of it, so he already entered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Udo Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 I notice that the melted clock is in the shape of an ear. The melted clock is an allusion to Dali's "Persistence of Memory," I think, so my thought is that the artist is saying that their music is timeless.
