Project Cu exhibit which features photos of approximately 35 slang for vagina opened Saturday Mar. 15, 2014 and is on display for the next six months at City College of San Francisco Ocean Campus Madeleine Haas Russell Gallery, the 2nd floor of Rosenberg Library.
Artist Jung Ran Bae crafted sculptures of the lower half of a woman, cut off right beneath the breast and placed sculptures of slang depicting different words for vagina in the crotch.
Honey pot, hairy donuts, cake.
It's all there.
Bae said she giggled the first time she heard the word vagina, she said the word was cute. Bae recalls a lack of visceral, emotions associated with colloquialisms for vagina because she was unfamiliar with American slang she said. Project Cu highlights a portion of Bae's Korean cultural experience living in America, differences in sexuality.
The photos are part of a larger exhibit titled "Our American Stories" that opened the same day.
