Obscene Corner

Object, 2012-2015, human hair

Made out of my own hair which I collected from my bathtub after showering, and then rolled and squeezed between my hands.
It is expected to cause some discomfort, but what is this? Some nest that looks rather filthy – what is this for? A fetish object? Cocoons? It seems quite perverse.

Bodily Nature/Turf

Body Piece, 2015, my own hair and gold

Hair grows like grass. I combined my own hair and gold, these are two materials that will remain when I cease.

Fertile Field for Fertility

Body Piece, 2014, soil, pubic hair and thread

Fertile land is cultivated. Pubic hair, because it covers the sexual organs, is somehow connected to sexuality and fertility. The body, like soil, is also fertile and able to give birth, to grow, new life. Soil has the capacity for generating and can also be used to bury. 

Virililty II

Body piece, 2015, human hair, leather, textile and oxidised silver

Hair is a sign of virility, and the growth of facial hair in males is a sign of sexual maturity. For this work, the fine weaving techniques utilized to make false moustaches was used .

Wild

Body Piece, 2014 – 2015, human hair, leather, fabric and oxidised silver

The abundant hair is a sign of male virility, but the amount of hair on the body makes man different from other animals. What is the right amount of hair to cover the body? 

Symbolic Castration

Body Piece, 2015, leather, cotton, fabric, thread and pubic hair

One finger from a pink/skin-coloured leather glove was detached from the glove. The original shape was preserved by filling it with white cotton. Then a white fabric was placed to cover the cotton and several pubic hairs were attached. The work is phallic shaped.

Bodily Nature/The Great Orifice

Body Piece, 2014-2015, pubic hair, horse hair and oxidised silver

A body piece made with pubic hair, tightly knotted and attached one by one to a single horse hair, used as a structure to hold the shape. This work can be placed around the neck, preferably a long neck which can suggest a phallic element.
