Eloi and Morlock 02 - a photo on Flickriver

            My Entry For Bio-Cup 2020, Preliminary Round, Theme: The Future

The Eloi are simple and carefree people who live on the surface and eat fruit, while the Morlocks are an industrial lot who live underground to avoid the harmful light.  They are two divergent evolutions of humankind; the Eloi are descendants of the worriless upper class who have grown placid with time, while the Morlock are mutations of the poor working class, forced to evolve underground to survive.  Now, when night comes, the Morlocks venture to the surface to capture the Eloi, their primary source of food.

For my Future themed MOC, I decided to go with a vision from one of the very first Science Fiction stories, “The Time Machine” by HG Wells.  In this story, humanity has devolved into two forms of the Eloi and Morlocks as an allegory to classism in 19th Century England.  I tried to show off these differences by creating the two divergent characters of the Eloi and Morlock, contrasting scenes to depict their living conditions, as well as a mini-model of the visiting Time Machine.  While the Eloi picks fruit from the trees on the surface, the Morlock slouches in its underground tunnel, preparing its tools for the next hunt.
