Repressionism is a conceptual art piece that seeks to explore what it is we project (as society and individuals) on people representing various intimate relationships.
The relationships presented will be that of a straight, gay, and lesbian couple as well as an individual.
The models will be mostly nude, blindfolded and bound to each other. In this they will become a blank canvas for us to uninhibitedly project our thoughts, inspirations, doodles, imaginations, and expositions on without the threat or fear of judgement.
Sharpies (permanent markers) will be provided for you to interact with the art in a way that is non traditional and more personal. You will be drawing directly on the bodies of the models! You will be the artist! You will be the art!
We will be documenting the event and taking REPRESSIONISM across the country to see how various communities respond to the same concept.
To recap:
- Live models will pose as couples and individuals.
- You and I will draw and write on the bodies according to what inspires us.
- Art will be documented and added to a collective of REPRESSIONISM from across the country.
I look forward to sharing this experience with you. Long live the creative spirit!
Cheers,
Shadna
