My thesis project, Dom & Sub, a.k.a. why I’ve been such a bad tumblr-er/bad friend/etc. My artist statement:
Dom & Sub is a body of illustrative work in digital media that attempts to humanize practitioners of BDSM and offer a representation of kinky sex that not only refutes negative stereotypes but informs the audience that sadomasochistic play is done best between happy, healthy, and consenting adults. I portrayed the couple in the work not only engaging in S&M play but also building a “scene” together and nurturing one another after the play has concluded; these are moments often left unconsidered or completely ignored in visual representations of S&M. I believe it’s important to see how kinky scenes are crafted with care, commitment to safety and enthusiastic consent in order to limit those times when sadomasochistic play is used to abuse or dehumanize other human beings. It is my hope that my audience will learn from the illustrations that sadomasochistic play is not always dark or scary, and that fellow ‘kinksters’ can enjoy tender representations of S&M that do not ridicule or pathologize them. I’ve designed the work to engage sadomasochistic imagery, material and theory with an ethical conscience.
I finished OFF and decided to write a thing. It contains a lot of my headcanons. And, er, some other things.
Characters: The Batter, Zacharie
Rating: Yeah wow, don’t read this in the office. Or at school. Or in front of your parents.
Warning: OFF spoilers. If you haven’t finished the game then what are you waiting for you silly person? Go finish. You won’t regret it and this’ll still be here when you get back.
AHAAH this is so OOC for my headcanon Zach but like
he’s just such a patoot
