VCAM Upper Create Space
Opening Reception: Friday, April 28, 4:30pm
Nobody talks about it, but everyone dreams of it: sexual liberation, expression, pleasure, and most importantly, existence. Navigating the ever-changing landscapes of human sexuality, we yearn to express, manifest, and fulfill our most ambitious constructions of a world where the human desire to connect lies unpoliced and free. Not Safe for Socials: Imaging Sex Utopias and De-Censoring Obscenity creates our own sex utopias with luscious imaginings of futuristic robots, personal documentation of daily details and queer fabulations of a fantastic past, present, and future.
We attempt to connect with the past, present, and future. We are not afraid to reuse and repurpose. We use sounds and images that we create and collect. We interact with technology that seems so distant from our physical selves.
The modern world as we know it has confined human sexuality into a limited space. We envision where this changes—not quietly, but loudly. This exhibit explores the beauty of sex, queerness, bodies of all sizes, transformation, pleasure, euphoria, and porn. Let’s turn the campus into a public sex utopia.
