A Vital Matters Perspective: Cosas que Sangran: Complexly Vaginal
Cosas que Sangran: Complexly Vaginal
Cosas que Sangran is a textile artwork described as having a vaginal-like form. The piece is constructed from knitted rope and flax and is hand-dyed with cochinilla. Natalie Godinez interprets the work as referencing both the cochinilla insect, which produces red dye when crushed, and the association of bleeding with bodies that have vaginas. The artwork combines different materials and techniques, using tubular forms that are layered and sewn together to create its overall shape.
