I Used Months Of Menstruation To Create Beauty

ADVERTISEMENT

Menstruation is still a taboo today. In many countries women are still segregated during their time of the month. Even where women go about their usual business during menstruation, they still don’t talk about it, it’s not seen.

Even commercials use blue liquid to represent blood. We see so much blood due to violence, yet we shrink away when natural blood is exposed. I got close to it. I saw the beauty in it.

A period is natural. Painting with period blood is NOT natural. Painting your mans face with period blood is NOT natural. TASTING PERIOD BLOOD IS NOT NATURAL!!!! This is nothing more than a cry for any attention possible, be it postive or negative. How sad.

Gross- is my feeling- That said- they say "art" should shock one- should shake you up. In that you have succeeded. Aside from that- I am disgusted. I can't quite wipe the disgust off my face. Fecal matter is also natural- would you dip your fingers and paint with it? I would hope not. Find another medium- hopefully you have made your statement and can move on.

Fecal art story was very popular in our family. It severely embarrassed my brother who briefly tried on that occupation while still in diapers. It was a masterpiece on the wall next to the crib, if one is to believe what was told and retold. Mother of the artist got much better at securing diapers.

I agree that menstruation should not be considered as taboo theme. in my community young girls are ashamed to mention that they have menstruation, instead they say we have 'guests' or something like this. when you go to shop to buy pads they try to put it in dark bag and give you secretly, as if it utter crime buying them, so, i am all for taking taboo stigma off this subject, but seeing this photos is unsettling and very uncomfortable for me. for me it is not enjoyable seeing some person licking menstrual blood (maybe in the photos it is not real blood but still) or seeing someone painting something with that.as i do not want to see some stranger's vomit or someone's spit on the ground. The first photo was beautiful, though, i probably would have liked it if i did not know it was menstrual blood :D :D menstrual blood is something very intimate that not everyone enjoys bring it out to public, though nobody should be ashamed of it

It's a natural thing and I don't think it's gross. Women need to push against the expectations set by society (e.g. being embarrassed about your period). They actually bleeped out the word "period" in reference to menses - it's not a dirty word-FFS.

The fact that people here are getting disgusted and negative does not necessarily mean that they are "afraid of their own shadow" (quoting below comment). I got no shame and no disgust from the menstruation (mine at least) and I do agree that with all the blood and violence that media has shown us, THIS blood right here is the most peaceful blood which actually symbolizes "life" and continuation of it. That being said, let's not forget that menstrual blood is what is considered "old" or "dirty" blood which is discharged by a woman's body as a means to cleanse itself. So "tasting" it and putting it on one's face is just absolutely unhygienic and gross. Use red paint to symbolize blood if you want. But these 2 photos have a sick vibe to them, something that should be on sick porn channels. :/

EVEN THOUGH periods are completely natural. Taking shits is also completely natural and it carries nutrients that bring life to plants and such, but s**t is still gross, wouldn't you agree? And why the f**k does that guy have a finger covered in period blood in his mouth? That's just F**K NO.

You are right, but they are not the only ones to be blamed..... Biggest part of blame should go to feminists themselves, who cannot decide and seem to lack the brain power to take tough decision in their movements favor -- to excommunicate such artists from the group.... But I wonder how can they do that, when they themselves claim anything and everything as feminist that even remotely favors their secret (well not so secret) agenda of propagating male hatred (getting rid of masculinity) across the world..... They are confused, because of their own hegemonic agenda.... SO ultimately such things would happen.... In the process of hating masculinity, feminism has started hating anything natural by terming all of it patriarchal in origin.... I never thought that hatred towards their own fathers would turn such large number of people into mental monsters.... And guys have another problem, where their childhood experiences doesn't allow them to hate feminine form, when it turns disgusting.

It is red paint. Blood is tough to imitate and this type of blood tends to have brown undertones that are missing here. That aside, I've always sensed art that shocks/revolts often does so to compensate a lack. This didn't shock me but I see it may have others.

I personally know the author of this work, and I also personally helped for the realization of one of the pictures... I'm sorry for you, but, actually, that was real blood. The color is so vivid because of the use of the fleurcup, that prevents blood from getting "dirt" and browner. :)

Thank you for sharing your work! I regularly create art with my own menstruation as well. For me there is nothing disgusting about it. Menstruation for me is visually aesthetic, has a lot of rich connotations (blood, procreation etc.) and so much stigma. I like to use art to start a discourse about the beauty in things that are called unhealthy, gross, hurtful. I find beauty in menstrual art like mine or yours. Thank you for being part of this.

Awesome. Here's another thing all you naysayers should know: menstrual fluid has medical value. For instance: "Scientists in Japan have discovered that cells taken from menstrual blood can be cultivated in the lab and used like stem cells to repair damaged heart tissue." A truly undervalued resource. LOOK. IT. UP. Learn something. It is also valuable in your compost, and garden.

I agree with ur comment here.... And in the same vein, can I say, that the women who think that they don't like people getting disgusted on seeing or smelling or coming close to a women in period, should keep away from such disgusted people.... That is definitely not a proof that patriarchy is working and thus, should be fought against to alleviate women's status through menstrual blood art work and going public to celebrate happy to bleed campaign.... Other people have their right to get disgusted at what they think is disgusting...

A period is natural. Painting with period blood is NOT natural. Painting your mans face with period blood is NOT natural. TASTING PERIOD BLOOD IS NOT NATURAL!!!! This is nothing more than a cry for any attention possible, be it postive or negative. How sad.

Gross- is my feeling- That said- they say "art" should shock one- should shake you up. In that you have succeeded. Aside from that- I am disgusted. I can't quite wipe the disgust off my face. Fecal matter is also natural- would you dip your fingers and paint with it? I would hope not. Find another medium- hopefully you have made your statement and can move on.

Fecal art story was very popular in our family. It severely embarrassed my brother who briefly tried on that occupation while still in diapers. It was a masterpiece on the wall next to the crib, if one is to believe what was told and retold. Mother of the artist got much better at securing diapers.

I agree that menstruation should not be considered as taboo theme. in my community young girls are ashamed to mention that they have menstruation, instead they say we have 'guests' or something like this. when you go to shop to buy pads they try to put it in dark bag and give you secretly, as if it utter crime buying them, so, i am all for taking taboo stigma off this subject, but seeing this photos is unsettling and very uncomfortable for me. for me it is not enjoyable seeing some person licking menstrual blood (maybe in the photos it is not real blood but still) or seeing someone painting something with that.as i do not want to see some stranger's vomit or someone's spit on the ground. The first photo was beautiful, though, i probably would have liked it if i did not know it was menstrual blood :D :D menstrual blood is something very intimate that not everyone enjoys bring it out to public, though nobody should be ashamed of it

It's a natural thing and I don't think it's gross. Women need to push against the expectations set by society (e.g. being embarrassed about your period). They actually bleeped out the word "period" in reference to menses - it's not a dirty word-FFS.

The fact that people here are getting disgusted and negative does not necessarily mean that they are "afraid of their own shadow" (quoting below comment). I got no shame and no disgust from the menstruation (mine at least) and I do agree that with all the blood and violence that media has shown us, THIS blood right here is the most peaceful blood which actually symbolizes "life" and continuation of it. That being said, let's not forget that menstrual blood is what is considered "old" or "dirty" blood which is discharged by a woman's body as a means to cleanse itself. So "tasting" it and putting it on one's face is just absolutely unhygienic and gross. Use red paint to symbolize blood if you want. But these 2 photos have a sick vibe to them, something that should be on sick porn channels. :/

S******g is still a taboo today. In many countries people are still segregated during their time of the day. Even where people go about their usual business during s******g, they still don’t talk about it, it’s not seen. If I smeared s**t all over myself people would assume I was insane, but as it's menstrual blood it's "art".

You are right, but they are not the only ones to be blamed..... Biggest part of blame should go to feminists themselves, who cannot decide and seem to lack the brain power to take tough decision in their movements favor -- to excommunicate such artists from the group.... But I wonder how can they do that, when they themselves claim anything and everything as feminist that even remotely favors their secret (well not so secret) agenda of propagating male hatred (getting rid of masculinity) across the world..... They are confused, because of their own hegemonic agenda.... SO ultimately such things would happen.... In the process of hating masculinity, feminism has started hating anything natural by terming all of it patriarchal in origin.... I never thought that hatred towards their own fathers would turn such large number of people into mental monsters.... And guys have another problem, where their childhood experiences doesn't allow them to hate feminine form, when it turns disgusting.

It is red paint. Blood is tough to imitate and this type of blood tends to have brown undertones that are missing here. That aside, I've always sensed art that shocks/revolts often does so to compensate a lack. This didn't shock me but I see it may have others.

Thank you for sharing your work! I regularly create art with my own menstruation as well. For me there is nothing disgusting about it. Menstruation for me is visually aesthetic, has a lot of rich connotations (blood, procreation etc.) and so much stigma. I like to use art to start a discourse about the beauty in things that are called unhealthy, gross, hurtful. I find beauty in menstrual art like mine or yours. Thank you for being part of this.

That is definitely not a proof that patriarchy is working and thus, should be fought against to alleviate women's status through menstrual blood art work and going public to celebrate happy to bleed campaign.... Other people have their right to get disgusted at what they think is disgusting...
