Personalized Lipstick
I found a great blog site that discusses all kinds of issues regarding menstruation. The site re: Cycling. led me to an art project of interest. The art piece entitled Red is the Colour, by Ingrid Berthon-moine, 2009, features different women wearing their own menstrual blood as lipstick.

Wow. I so am not sure how I feel about this yet! I will have to look further into it!
ReplyDeleteI thought that the photos definitely spoke to the topic. Yesterday, at ACAD I spoke with a student who said he left the "pro" student association table because they were talking about "women stuff". When I asked what he meant "menstruation or feminism", he answered "feminism". I was shocked as I didn't realize that one, that this person would find either topic to be taboo??? I certainly think it's a relevant topic and does give an emotional response. Have you decided what you don't like about it?
