Blow Fish

Another in the Sexidermy series the Blow Fish is a visual and verbal pun. This one is pure silliness, though without the shock value of some others in the series. Painted to resemble a love doll, this dead fish, all open mouthed and eyes closed is just gagging for it! Pure whimsy, she comes under Jamie's Neo Surrealism brand of work. Commenting on the sex industry in general and sex dolls in particular the Blow Fish poses some interesting questions. Not the least of which is how to avoid the spikes! Sitting on a luxurious pink cusion she's ready for the boudoir whenever you are. Just remember that the pufferfish is called Fugu in Japanese and is the notorioulsy dangerous sushi, which is fatal if prepared incorrectly. So better she gobbles you than you gobble her and Fug-you too!
