Books Magazines: OH SO BIG

OH SO BIG was published as a limited edition printed magazine, edition of 100 in 2011. The magazine examines issues of race, pornography, and sexuality by re contextualizing soft-core porn from the1970's. By inverting the male gaze of the originals with collage methods the new magazine subverts the power structure and intention of the original materials. Racial content of the imagery reflects the social times and are presented with a contemporary female point of view.
