Tampon tulips

April 8, 2016

mary hamillThe British Mary Hamill created the photo series Semper Augustus where tampons are used to create tulips in various shades of red.

With her work, Hamill wants to understand the many taboos that have been attached to menstruation and female sexuality. In the pictures, the metaphorical form of the flower and its reproductive qualities are used to portray the female form, its capacity to reproduce and its social, cultural and historical significance.

In this video you can see the photo series and the prototype of the book the artist wants to create.
