1/1 Hand Colored.The Joint @ Hard Rock

"I titled this image “head like a hole” but really it’s an amalgam of many nine inch nails lyrics. The skeleton represents what’s inside all of us... what’s underneath the surface... our mortality, our frailty, our uncomfortable nakedness... it represents a man or woman or any gender, any race... we are here and then we’re gone... back into the dust.
Beneath a galactic “downward spiral”, standing on the precipice of the Nine Inch Nails logo. The Skeleton, without a heart, begins its journey before the imposing and ancient Ozymandias of a crumbling multi-armed deity; a Kafka-esque creation by the skeleton’s own mind? Is the quest for the heart of purpose beginning or ending? Is the heart long since fossilized or is it just protected in armor and can no longer be suppressed? Is it all just a fever dream of NIN lyrical inspiration? Or is Emek just losing his mind again? Will you bow down before the one you serve?…..Head like a Hole.
... also a little Las Vegas skyline is in the background of the dark desert wasteland." -- Emek
