Art my ass is a series of pencil drawings on post-its that portray several women exposing their bottoms in a playful and sometimes defiant attitude to the public. Rossina Bossio started the series in 2007, when she was still studying at the University, as a gesture of rejection towards the academic discourse of arts and the arrogance of certain overly intellectual artistic approaches. Since then, she has kept accumulating these small sheets of paper, which have come to signify a sort of manifesto in favor of creative (and sexual) freedom. A “kiss my arse” kind of thing.
From afar, the white post-its hanging on the wall look delicate, even innocent. But when the viewer approaches, he’ll find hundreds of women in all imaginable positions, rubbing their naked asses on his face.
Art my Ass is both a subtle and aggressive series which manages to seduce and surprise the viewer.
