Painting, Human figure, Oil, 102x102x5cm
An analysis of entertainment; here, delving into the sexual realm -the epitome of what itself signifies, coexisting with the shame of it set by society’s moral standards. Close up faces in submissive acts, culled from amateur porn sites. By censoring what is considered the extreme graphic element, the subjects emit bizarre yet extremely personal emotions -leaving the viewer to question if it is torture or murder. In reality, they are in the state of acute pleasure achieved by voluntary submission -bringing into perspective our human complexity with the suggestion of the close relationship between sex and death. To some, these works might inevitably provoke a certain arousal, exposing the innate sexual nature of our psyche: we are animals with a voracious sexual appetite. Subjectively, it is a commentary on how, despite the evolution of the Internet, sex is still its number one usage for entertainment. Whether that be as slightly related as social networking, all the way through to sites for dating, fantasizing, or blatant gratification. This says a lot about society as a whole, especially American society and its obsession with being entertained - whatever that may imply.
