As if censorship -- & vaginas -- were anything new.


Walks in the Park, Shutting up, or : Buy me a Ball-Gag.


Flashbacks to some old "art"-ish things. In light of Yusef's request for (the memory) of my actual art stuff from back-in-the-day, and articles too "inflammatory" to publish, I'll just call it a day and give you some other fun memories of censorship.

<--------2001 show, before I gave up the tattooing, gave up the painting and started focusing on writing. Bugs are fine.




<--------- 2001 show. This was in the box in the middle (you know, the one with "painting removed" in the sign above). It was not fine. Vaginas. Freaking you out since, well, forever.

This one wasn't so popular either. From a 2002 show. "Photojournalistic Ethics (?)" - it got ripped down from the exhibition (only) four times.  I still don't understand why it's so offensive to look at this iteration. Isn't the reality far more upsetting?

Seth Depiesse reconfiguring (in chalk) the original photograph by the both of us. This is from his show (I think around 2007?). The original photograph was in an exhibition of mine from 2004, but was destroyed by a happy-go-lucky-audience member. ----------------------------------------------->
