For a NEW 10th anniversary GREAT WALL of VULVA!
I’m creating a new, large-scale wall of vagina casts (well vulvas actually), working title ‘Viva La Vulva’, to be unveiled in 2022, ten years on from London debut of The Great Wall of Vagina. I’m again seeking hundreds of volunteers to be part of another important artwork. I want to show the world that there is no ‘normal’ – everybody is unique. You are your own normal! Now more than ever we need positive portrayals of diversity in all its forms.
Lets make art history together…
For a NEW Wall of Vulvas Scans!
LOCKDOWN BUSH! It’s a thing! Before you go cutting it all off now, come and be scanned for the alternative vulva wall. I use a document scanner to photograph the body and the results are super cool. From the full bush to Hollywoods and Brazilians, tattoos, piercings, vajazzles etc – I’m scanning it all. Showing everything that vulvas castings can’t! It’s a delicious document of diversity for the 21st century.
I’m also creating all kinds of other interesting works for which I need you and your friends to come and get involved. It’s fun and free and fabulously liberating. Lets make art history together…
I have been a professional artist for over 25 years, working largely in figurative sculpture and photography. I take a multidisciplinary approach, creating highly finished, museum quality artworks from my UK and USA studios.
I work in many materials including bronze, steel, glass, marble, fibreglass and found objects. As well as nudes I’m known for my genital sculptures: Some are social commentary and others are simply humorous but they appear to have started a movement…
I have developed an experimental photographic technique using an adapted document scanner as a digital camera. The images have a decidedly painterly look and feel, taking photography in its literal sense of ‘painting with light’.
My latest photographic series are national flags made from hundreds of volunteers in their underwear, raising funds and awareness to combat the scourge of breast cancer.
1 Man, 5 Years, 400 Women – “Changing female body image, showing normal vulva variety and combatting genital shame” was the ethos behind this world famous sociopolitical artwork.

An interview about how I got into casting vulvas, the stigma of being an artist whose main subject revolves around genitalia, being censored, and how censorship can affect not only art communities or sex ed communities but the whole world we live in!
In collaboration with WEAM – the Wilzig Erotic Art Museum in Miami
