Opening Night: Spy Emerson’s Controversial Art | SoMa

Submitted by the Event Organizer

The images on display are a collage medium combining discarded/outdated pornographic images, with pictures of food from grocery-store circulars and Good Housekeeping magazines.

This body of work, named “EAT IT”, creates a visual comparison of food and sex, and how both are consumed. In one image, a woman holds a cherry over her previously exposed genitals, showing nothing but legs. In another image, a woman gluttonously devours mayonnaise from the jar, exposing her own body in the process. Both women are projecting beacons of sexuality; each relates a different feeling about consumption with both women being equally in control.
