I LIKE IT ROUGH

I feel liberated lately, and coming into senses with my artistic values and being more comfortable in my own skin. Remember back in Spring I said I entered the Short Film Festival and won the Creative Vision Award. So they gave the winners a gift card to Barnes & Noble (ugh!) which I haven't spend until last week, I just ordered a copy of The Philosophy of Andy Warhol, Logo Design book, and Moleskine sketchbook! yesssss! I think Andy is a brilliant pop artist and a notorious social butterfly.

His prediction in the '60s came true:
"In the future everyone will be famous for 15 minutes." —Andy Warhol

IS IT BECAUSE YOU DON'T MEAN IT?
OR BECAUSE I DON'T FEEL IT...
UNLESS IT'S ROUGH?!

—Lady GaGa "I Like It Rough"







NEW ARTWORK
So weird, lately I've been dreaming a lot about sexual encounters, it was some rough fucking, I woke up still feeling the intense sensation! Now I am inspired by those dreams, so I'm exploring sexual themes for my new artwork...

I made this funny piece as a social commentary and play on how men is being sexually objectified as if they are just a piece of meat. Nowadays, not only women, but men is being objectified too. Which is ridiculous and stupid, especially the image of celebrities exist as a screen to project our desires on. But do we really know them? Things will always be manipulated, duplicated, and repeated, but what you should do is try to see the differences in those repetition.
