DAMNED SNAILS- The Witch Snail by Onur Ünder (Sculpture)

This piece was designed by the artist and crafted by hand using traditional techniques. It was
modeled with Monsterclay wax, molded in silicone, and cast in polyurethane resin. The coloring
was applied solely by hand and brush with acrylic paint and mixed techniques. The hair was
individually hand-glued. A total of 12 pieces were created simultaneously, taking a year to
complete.

Story of the piece:
”If you ever throw garbage in the woods, where the witch is usually operates her sadistic black
magic, well… Think again! She loves using some of that same magic on your beautiful eyes and
take them from you, with causing the worst pain you would imagine… When you would be blind,
in agony and probably dead, she won’t even think twice to use your eyes as her new magical
binoculars to see beyond the stars… The witch snail will be damned forever and she will make
you one too, if you dare!”

Cursed by a powerful black magic
We transformed into the creatures of the night.
Never had a chance to redeem ourselves…
Oh nevermind, at least we love the taste of the blood.
There’s a very strong curse in our blood,
We were born to crawl in dark side
We are damned snails in the wood!
