I believe that her views on exhibitionist art is completely taboo and out of the box. That’s why I think it’s totally acceptable. If those are the mediums that she has chosen to get her point and message across to her desired demographic than so be it; that’s her decision. The pain and courage she experiences during the active performances is admirable and unbelievable. I can’t believe some of the things she experiences just to have something acted out or happen the correct way.

She takes the materials that God gave her with her body and the people she knows and the surroundings she is placed in to create whatever comes to her mind; it is brilliant.
