Origin (of Pleasure & Pain) Painting

The female form is overly censored. Breasts and the naked female physique is seen as a symbol of sexual desire and pleasure. This archaic view overlooks the other realities and traumas that are sometimes more pertinent to the souls within these bodies. Is it ironic or poignant that the vagina has so many nouns in language when its purpose and what it is capable of producing is as varied itself? The vagina, something people often feel uncomfortable with being confronted with, is the source of the most immense pleasure one can experience. Equally it can be the origin of the cruellest traumas imaginable; directly from the pain of labour, of gynaecological conditions like Endometriosis, the focus of sexual abuse. Some people will see this piece and immediately see in the physique a woman on the flight of pleasure, others will see a woman in labour, some will see a woman in pain and anguish. The vagina at the center of all these interpretations is deliberate and unapologetic. Until we can overcome our sensitivities over something so powerful, we can not begin to break down the barriers and taboos that obstruct owners of their vaginas seeking the liberation they need.
