Venus of Willendorf (Yeah, Baby, She's Got It) (feat. Sarah Baartman, Martha Wash, Izora Armstead)
No, honey! Trust and believe dey all got it and then som! Six full figured Blackty Black Butch Queens are servin body fo dayz! Ain’t nann one miss no meals, and dats jus de way we like it! Body, ody, ody, ody, ody, ody, ody, ody! Ain’t dat what Meg say?! De piece was created using dat Drake light skint tracing paper. What bout de line work chu ask? Well, I thought it be thicc thighs save lives, but de way these contours lines are set up everybody is getting blessed today! Honey! Thick and thin black lines make up de faceless figures. These figures are given off sum major Venus of Willendorf vibes wit jus a touch of Sarah Baartman tah boot. De figures take up most of de picture plane carful tah not break de border. Not sure how tah put dis, but de lines furthest out make de figures seem most rendered in a som what realist way, and as we focus our attentions toward de center of de picture plane de figures become mo abstract, and it’s a bit harder tah pick out where one figure begins and another ends. De four figures dat make up de left and right side of de piece appear tah be standing or maybe dey are suspended in a large body of water. De figures in de center of de piece; well de lines merge and sometimes they seem tah be reclining while other times dey be seated. Hell, maybe they doin sum reverse cowgirl poses up in dis drawing. De hands and feet of de figures are very loose and drawn in a gestural like way. It appears dat de person making de marks was drawing de limbs tah jus give de viewer a hint of hands and/or feet. Or maybe som of these beautiful figures are meant tah represent disabled bodies possessing different types of limbs or no limbs at all. 3 Snaps! In de center there are three or four sections that are a bit smudged maybe a couple half inches apart. Lastly, I know we said dat de lines were Blackty, Black, black however after closer inspection som of de lines at different points in de piece are grayish. Particularly where de figures genital and maybe crises or folds be. I know I said lastly, but de nipples are jus sable dots. Som of de nipples are also contoured lined oval shaped.
