IB: Ideation of the Black Female

[mvscal]

The sculptor is actually a black female. Seems to be a lot self-loathing in this piece of "art." My question to you is...what in the actual fuck?

The piece features a large head of a Black woman with cornrows atop what appears to be a skirt that also resembles a house and is meant to merge human form with architectural elements.

1. The artist denies it, but this is a self portrait.
2. The Inquisitor's description doesn't describe the piece at all.


A. That's not how cornrows as a style usually work. Not even when Bo Derek appropriated them in 10. But the seashells are nice.
B. Imagine a house but miss both the afro and the missing eyes in front of you.
C. A Brickhouse is a stacked woman, also referred to as a Stallion. The statue's body has been removed. So there's a meta meaning in there.
D. Women get offended when the male gaze cannot be controlled. The saying 'I'm up here'.....meaning look into her eyes (soul)...
E. ... but not only has the piece no body, it has no eyes. No ass, no eyes, where is the viewer's gaze supposed to go?


Seashells with a face rising from ... what?

a. Looks like macaroni artwork.
b. 'macaroni in a pot' is zoomer for noisy sex
c. 'maquereau-ny' is colonial American slang for being as stylish as a pimp
d. onaholes have ridges inside to approximate the inside of a vagina, so.....


the piece is a reworking of Botticelli's Venus. It's a black woman's head rising from a womb, not architecture, not a house.... which also makes it a reworking of Tlazolteotl, the Goddess who gives Birth to Herself.


I still don't understand the missing eyes. She called it Brickhouse, not Prophetess.


Why did the Furhmans find it beautiful?

Yes, a black chick popping out of a watermelon, like Erika Eleniak in Under Seige. And yes, it is more reminiscent of watermelon than architecture. But she has no eyes (I know, Erika's eyes were closed in The Scene, itself, but still) ....

Why remove her eyes?

What advice would you give Hunter Biden, trust fund baby to trust fund baby?

Uhm... you're comparison for artistic brilliance is Under Fucking Siege?

I'm rarely at a loss for a sharp, scathing retort... but you got me. Congrats.

Actually you are a mostly tongue tied, grammarsmack clutching, ditch digger with a penchant for grandiosity.

I should hope so, because Under Siege is Steven Seagal's magnum opus.

It seems like she might be on her knees, so that's a good start.

The above quoted post might be your magnum opus, since I made it all the way through.

Still doesn't make it good.

I don't get you, Dins.

Casey Ryback is the greatest action hero of all time, because of his humility. There's something eastern about the concept of the character, and not in the fake Carradine way.

There should be a whole series of books about Ryback and his past and current adventures.
