Dolores Callipyge (2022)
(Callipygian Dolores)
Oil on Canvas 200 x 200 cm
Lola is short for Dolores.
it means Pain in Spanish,
Pain from a mother's heart bleeding for her sacrificed son.
Here I am, suspended above a bull's blood-red cloth,
fettered by skilful shibari bonds that ignite in their movement.
I oscillate like a Foucault pendulum
between apprehension, embarrassment, and abandonment,
at the will of the shadow of ancestral "hombres" ,
heroic figures from the Spanish Family Pantheon,
about whom I know very little,
but I can guess that they are dark and shadowy.
I dangle, helpless,
my bare buttocks exposed to everyone's gaze
.
Lola Blaspera
