It is really beautiful work. If you don’t mind sharing, what does it mean to in relation to self integrity?

I'm not a critic but I'm thinking that penetration is happening in the mouth and the genitals are hidden by the serpent. Off the cuff, I'd say it's something to do with missing sexual fidelity.

Also just a guess--different sexual acts are morally ambiguous depending on who you ask, so maybe it means being true to one's own sexual desires, regardless of gender or social/religious stigma.

Does the shrunken Head in the serpent mouth mean anything special
thefifthorseman t1_j1ticn5 wrote
Again, no art critic and literal zero experience with what means what in art. But my first thoughs seeing it through my eyes are: snake head is covering male genetals and in an artsy way replacing it with female genitals (the finger insertion seems like a big deal to the peice). The body is super realistic, but the nappies are higher and more centred then normal, maybe again leaning towards a females body over a males, but that's the best I can think of. It just doesn't seem like an accident. The second snake entering the mouth has me at a loss, other than a possible oral sex act implication. I do know snakes are commonly known to represent sin. So I'm thinking with all that the "self integrity" is shown in the form of a male wanting to be and act female and needs to have a lot of self integrity to address it with how it is seen by a lot of people, as none else can.

Pretty sure that's the Jacobsons organ, and in reptiles in general it just looks like that actually.

The nipples suggest to me the body is intended to be seen as leaning away - like the head is lower than the feet.

It is very cool and sexual in a metaphor way

Ooh I like this. Really interesting!
Sneikss t1_j1u0tbq wrote
That is also intetesting because snakes use it to "taste" the world around them, so the finger covering it could represent a numbness or, alternatevely, some form of pleasure.

Are there 2 snakes in the picture? Or is this some kind of snaketopus? Wtf is this person eating?
Not trying to critique or anything, I'm really confused.
Edit: typo.

I find it interesting that the figure is male, but he's touching the snake as if it were a vulva. I feel like that's part of the message.

There are two snakes, it looks to me like the head of the one on the upper half of him is in his mouth and the lower snake is on the lower half of the body. Took me a second to follow it, hope that helps you see it.

Crafty_Editor_4155 t1_j1voelc wrote
looks more like “self-pleasure”
also one critique is scales on snake aren’t consistent. you have scales and belly shaded at the tail but it becomes smooooth at the figure’s waist. this is where the snake really starts to look like…well…something else.
edit: i just noticed there are two snakes? the second snake (with the scales) has its head apparently in the figures mouth.
think you need to change the title to this.
