I have chosen to go with the notion of sex. As I was away for the class when we received the brief, I had to go to the tutor and ask what the assignment really meant. Peter basically said "whats your notion", and straight away I said sex. He then asked "well, what is it about sex? What is it you like about sex, why would that be your notion". I had no answers to this, and it took me nearly two weeks to decide on why, and what it was before I could even start my piece.
I had to evaluate my thoughts on the subject and question why sex was such a powerful notion to me. And in that question was the answer. Sex made me feel powerful, it made me feel, it was not, for me, the intimacy or the connection with another person, it was the feeling of strength, the ability of making pleasure for myself, the force and movement of sex is exciting and these are the things I want to hopefully capture with my piece of art.
