Description
Medium: WatercoloursSize: A4
This painting was exhibited (unfinished) as part of my series "Touch & Technofetish" for the group show SEXSELLS: Observations of an Eroticised Consumer Culture. Here's the Tumblr: sexsells2012.tumblr.com/
It accompanies "The Height of Pleasure", and also deals more organically with physical stimulation and sensory pleasure, and the common forms used to express these sensations.
It was interesting hearing people's interpretations of this one
Anyway, this began as male and still has a spermy vibe in some places, but it morphed into something very genderless and more about sensation, perception, and stimulation as part of a mechanised system . The circle motif took on symbolic representation of an egg, then a cell, then an eye.
Yada yada yada, it's just funky and colourful. Haha.
This is the last one from that series, hope you like it

It looks like at jellyfish with a fish in the center soitting water and bubbles...It looks like when you cut a tree and see all the rings in the center of the tree - interesting life this tree has led...There is also somewhat of a dial, like you had on really old landline phones...
I think morphic is the right word for this piece as it changes and almost seem to move. It has the sense of before female/male of life just before it choose one or the other gender...
Like it...

What a great interpretation I certainly had the tree rings vaguely in mind when I was making it now that you mention it, to try and reference that organic undertone. Thanks so much for your wonderful words Sara

I don't automatically think of sex or sexual gender when I see it, but on further examination it is kinda hot. At least . . . organic Love the colors and tiny details.

Aw thanks I'm finding out how much it really depends on good brushes, I'm in desperate need of an overhaul!
