Artist Statement

Unpopular opinion, but sex is friggin weird. There’s so much movement and science liquids and there’s, like, effort, you know, and I never saw the big whop neither as a child, thankfully, or as an adult. The time in between, I began to realize that the desire to date people and have a round of how’s your father wasn’t something everyone pretended they enjoyed for the sake of procreating and that my relationship with sex was very personal. While I’m in a more open-minded setting nowadays, the desire to woohoo was one of those things that brought us together as humans–like pouring your cereal before your milk or taking apart your KitKat bar before you eat it, so it was hard to connect with my peers on a topic that comes so naturally to them. Over time, I learned how to gain a tolerance to this topic by approach sex and sexuality in a comedic way, both verbally and through my art, as a way to create a social bridge between my friends, family, and I. In drawing these illustrations, I jot down my personal experiences with sex and how I feel about them, demonstrating my simultaneous feelings of strangeness and naturalism using human-like figures in an art style inspired by anime and western cartoons.
