Clever and attention-grabbing, U.K.-based artist Laura Ann Jacobs is unleashing her feminist anger through her new collection of underwear sculptures. The different pieces, over 100 in the series, display some seriously outrageous bras with names like bras that pinch, garden of eatin’ and would he or woody knot.
Some of her styles, which may be purchased from her website www.laurasaura.com, (send her an email) are described as Dali-inspired to antique glass. They are purposely designed to bring attention to the fact that feminism has been countered by, in Jacobs' words, “today’s ever-present porn industry and freaky surgery makeovers.”
Jacobs continues, “Today's self-assertive, self-reliant, independent modern woman is more man made than ever before, still shaped by man's DIC-tates.”
Power to the sista! Would you buy one of these?
The collection also includes corsets and shoes - they must be pricey!
