I wanted to create the notion of Sex. I did this particular piece to show the motion of sex, the feeling and colour. I wanted to be able to express what sex looks like for me and my partner.
I was, for a long time struggling for ideas how to portray sex, as mentioned earlier I was thinking of a set of paintings, or a sculpture, but none of these pieces would have held any context for this particular notion which I felt strongly about. I wanted to allow people to see all the attributes of sex without shoving a penis and vagina in there face.
Colour:
The colours on the board portrayed the feeling and emotion during the time of sex, this was done by closing our eyes and visualizing a colour we saw or felt during that time.
Smearing:
Obviously there was a lot of smearing paint across the board, this signified the movement of sex, the chaos that sometimes there is. When I picture sex I sometimes only think of arms and legs flinging about in ruffled blankets.
Hand/feet:
The hand and feet prints showed positioning, this is were I hope people can relate to the piece by working out in their head were my partner and I may have been positioned.
I believe I achieved my goal of completing a piece of work that portrays a notion I had.
