I AM IN LOVE WITH THESE MEN!
Sarah Lucas - Chicken Knickers, 1997
This is an image of the artist’s lower body wearing a pair of white knickers to which a chicken has been attached, its rear orifice in roughly the position of her vulva. Lucas has been using food as substitutes for human genitalia, both male and female, since the early 1990s. One of the principal themes in her work is a confrontation with traditional female roles and identities. She explores the ambiguities in her own attitudes and those of others (men as well as women) towards sexual objectification and desire. One of the ways she does this is by making physical and literal representations of vernacular terms for bodies, focusing, in particular, on sexual body parts and their connection to foods.
“There are some days when I think I’m going to die from an overdose of satisfaction.”
Recommending this documentary called Kumaré. I truly didn’t know what to expect at first, but as it progressed many phases of emotion was revealed. This man is brilliant.
