Furthermore, I created a piece out of clay, a yingyang breasts! They turned out extremely well, which I then began to experiment more.
I thought, "hey, what's classed as somewhat 'innocent', an every day object that could potentially have a deeper meaning." Then I thought, "AN APPLE". Because Eve ate the apple, females are now 'punished' with fertility and periods, therefore it has a negative image. This links in with sexism and the way females sometimes don't have the same rights as men (like showing nipples.) So I created an apple with a nipple. I call it (quite uncreatively) the Nipple Apple.
It's made of clay, wire and green tissue paper. For the wire I had to ensure I used my health and safety; my wire cutting gloves, eye protection and used the cutting tools correctly.
