Selfies | By, Yingyall
Selfies is an 11 X 8.5 saddle-stitch style booklet printed in full color with over 40 illustrations.
“My subject matter is womxn. My art showcases womxn’s bodies in positive ways, rendering feelings of self love and adoration. My art represents all the emotions and practices that join forces to construct a womxn’s confidence. I use the powers of womxnhood and sexuality to create art for anyone who chooses to identify with those in my illustrations. I want my illustrations to supply a feeling of empowerment and self identification in anyone. I make the choice to not include full faces in order for all people to more easily recognize themselves in the womxn I create. I am constantly inspired by women of all shapes, skin colors, backgrounds, and abilities - by their dreams, fears, sexualities, and passion.
If nothing else, my art is a celebration of womxn. They are created for you, for anyone and everyone. And they are inspired by you, by anyone and everyone. They are happy, melancholy, flirty, self-absorbed, loving, angry, fickle, sober, tipsy, silly, and perfect - like you and I. " -Ying Yall
