Good Girls Eat Meat Three Times A Week. Charcoal on Watercolour Paper

My charcoal work addresses the sexual objectification of women in western society. The mock advertisement promotes ‘meat’. The text within the work is purposely saturated with innuendo to reference male expectations (or rather, their hopes) of women. The sausage I hold makes explicit suggestion to sex. Sex sells. The intention of my work is to parody the politics of sexual equality. It is grounded in black comedy and openly provocative to invoke thought that concerns specific psychological perceptions of the figure. Using myself as the subject for this work explores and personalises my own distaste for being sexually objectified.
