Thought

It took me about two days of continually thinking, but I figured out what I’m going to do for my ceramics project and it doesn’t involve a cross at all.

A gigantic erection.

This should be fun.

What’s the only thing more offensive to the (orthodox) majority than religion?

Yeah, sex.

Now that’s pop art to me.

A gigantic erection is less offensive than my previous idea, which was a female pair of hips (no torso or legs) with a fairly realistic vagina modelled into it with a dildo in the shape of a cross coming out of it.

What’s the message of a gigantic erection?

Your reaction, and the opposition I am sure I am going to face while building it.

The important thing for me to remember is to take it seriously at all times. There’s nothing someone loves to do more than tearing down someone who doesn’t take their art seriously. Thankfully I am angry enough to take a gigantic erection very seriously.

It’ll be a disappointment really if I actually face no opposition. But also a relief, I guess.

  2. omg Clockwork Orange much?

  3. [...] The gigantic erection is nearly finished. I never told anyone what it was, including the two women who share a table with me, though they were very annoyed at the fact that I kept saying it was a secret. I was expecting it to be pretty obvious once I started to build the head, the ridge and everything. I think the detail on the shaft made it pretty apparent as it was, but no one guessed. [...]
