Two Color Screenprint on French Paper

This screenprint celebrates sexual freedom, sensual play, and masturbation. It’s so important to FEEL your own body, to understand what brings you pleasure, and to explore all aspects of your physical body. If we don’t know our own desires, it becomes challenging to communicate what we want to our partners. 

As an artist activist that works towards gender justice, I’m grateful that we are finally at a time where we are working to confront the epidemic that is sexual assault. And, we also must have a pathway forward towards a liberation that begins with our bodies. We must cultivate a culture of YES around sex and bodily pleasure, especially since so much of our culture is around the NO. 

This is why I'm committed to openly discussing and exploring sex, orgasm, sex toys, and non-monogamous relationships through my art and activism. The author and cultural worker, adrienne maree brown, refers to this work as “Pleasure Activism.” Through my art and my own sensual practice, I am building new practices of loving myself, and that manifests through my artistic practice.
