THE MONSTERS





A toddler's negligee, and a toddler's business suit  both with monster appliquéd on them, speaks less of pedophilia and more of the world of adult finance and adult sex. I was thinking about the idea of what is expected of us in a gender-enriched society, and also just of expectations in general. "What was expected of me growing up was very little , so the monsters easily came in. Then there was the child living down the street from me, Gordon Lane in fact. So much was expected of him. The monsters were forced upon him"…. 





The Monster images are collected from the work of John Herndon, a musician, and a tattoo artist. frenchfriedeyeballsThe drawings were intended to be tattoos.
