Power Bottom

Agricultural fencing equipment, rubber, vinyl, steel

2022

2022 Emerging Artist

A strap-on harness enlarged at 15 times normal scale, Power Bottom is constructed from salvaged rubber, steel, and agricultural fencing equipment. This work is about power: the tension between dominant and submissive entities– the user and the used, land as sexual object and object of production.

The leather strap is a technology that helped domesticate other animal species, cultivate plants, and ultimately, create civilization as we know it.
