What you can do
Spread the word: forward, post, invite: This will help me to complete v-portrait photography.
As
many of you know, I am not pursuing a certain number of v-portraits for
the book, but a feeling of we're all kinda sorta represented, and at
this point, that means more:
This
is not say that there is any vulva not welcome, wanted and integral to
the project. vagina vérité® is for and about all of us! We are truly
unique-everyone is invited to create a v-portrait.
The
women who participate in this project may or may not be comfortable
with their bodies. They range in age, experiences and lifestyle, and
relationship with their vaginas, vulvas, bodies. The one thing they
have in common is trusting me with their v-portraits.
My hope is that any woman who picks up the book will know that she is included, unique and valued. Because she is.

It includes or links to all of the info you need to introduce someone
to vagina vérité®. Let everyone in your world know
about this project and how they can be a part of it. You don't have to
forward to someone who personally meets my criteria list above. Just
forward to your people. Yes, you have people. And, so do your people-you see where I'm going with this. Please note that forwarding via the link at the
bottom will NOT automatically add anyone to the mail list.
post
or suggest places to post or people to email - I'll be researching
online over the next weeks, looking for places to post my call for
vv-participation. Where do you think I should post? I'm thinking
women's orgs, art bulletin boards, health and quality of life orgs,
social networking sites. Got any specific recommendations for me? Reply to
this email to send me your ideas. They are all good. Really. Please
don't assume that I would already know about this or that site or org.
I may not have acted on it even if I do know.
I'll be
posting on my Facebook page and tweeting. You can link to a web page of
this email and post on your Facebook page. Here's the link:
invite/bring
friends to view the v-portraits: SATURDAY, JAN 16 @ 2 - 5:30 pm - This
is an opportunity to view the v-portraits, meet me, ask questions, tell
me what you think - see for yourself.
The
invitation will go out shortly. It's going to be at my place [mid-town
Manhattan east side], where the v-portraits are installed on the living
room walls. An open-house. Everyone is welcome. RSVP will be required.
Tell me what interests you about this project-This will help me with the introduction.
I
envision the introduction text giving context to the work, by telling
how the project came about and came together, and then leaving you to
be with your perspective, experience, assumptions, questions, stories
while you view the v-portraits for yourself.
My
goal with vagina vérité® is to document this body part of us and by
doing that, create a space for conversation. Hearing what you think
helps me to get out of my head. It's you I want to reach with this
work. vagina vérité® is about all of us. And, that's us women and men.
