I Won’t Be Pretty For You: Vulvas Queered

I Will Not Be Pretty For You: Vulvas Queered is a gender-inclusive photo project which asks participants about the vision they have of their vulva and produces an artistic collaboration as an answer.

VULVA is defined here as "external genitalia of many females, males, and intersex people." Social assumptions about what vulvas should look like can lead to shame, confusion, psychological distress, and unnecessary surgeries. The images in I Will Not Be Pretty For You convey vulvas re-imagined, vulvas queered.

This on-going series deepens the conversation beyond genitals = gender or sex, and directly opposes the idea that the vulva is a body part that should look the same on every body.
