BORN 4 PORN
IDEATION, CURATORIAL CONCEPT + COLLAGE
Lyons Wier Gallery — Chelsea, NYC
Collaborated with curator, Derrick Harden, to create the central theme for this show. The three collaged pieces that I created, inspired by Histoire d’O/Story of O, acted as muses and anchors for the group exhibition, exploring themes of female sexual inhibition in relation to consumerism.
Each of the figures is named for Anne Desclos, and her two pseudonyms, Dominique Aury and Pauline Réage.
