Lilly McElroy I Throw Myself at Men

I Throw Myself At Men

For this project I went to a lot of bars and I literally threw myself at men who I didn't know. I used my body as a projectile, hurling myself toward strong, vulnerable men who were waiting to catch me. Poised in a perpetual state of social awkwardness and in full possession of the ability to subvert stereotypical gender roles, the photographs pose questions concerning relationships, social connection, sex, gender, and the desire to form relationships quickly that are both intense and long lasting. The project initially started after I placed ads on Craigslist.org looking for men who would meet me blind date style in bars and allow me to throw myself at them. This project comes from a place where the desire to make a positive connection with another person is coupled with the knowledge that a connection might not be possible, that the person might not catch me.

A New Artwork -- Pie's Fate

My New artwork is kind of experiment and research.

I am interested in how people distribute things. How would it comes out for people in different age, gender or background？I would print a picture of a whole cake and hand out to people at school, and they can get a feedback card along with the "cake". One can just follow his or her mind to cut off one piece of cake in whatever shape or size. (just think this piece is for oneself) Finally I will collect every cards and every unique piece of cake, put them together in a special way.

PS: I AM NOT SURE IF MY STATEMENT IS CLEAR ENOUGH FOR MY PURPOSE. MOREOVER, I AM NOT SURE IF I AM SPEAKING IN A NATIVE WAY. PLEASE, GIVE ME SOME ADVICE. THANK YOU!
