I.C. Boners

My work explores the relationship between technology, adornment, and biology.

With influences as diverse as Munch and L Ron Hubbard, new tensions are generated from both explicit and implicit structures.

Ever since I was a pre-adolescent I have been fascinated by the essential unreality of the human condition. What starts out as vision soon becomes finessed into a carnival of temptation, leaving only a sense of decadence and the possibility of a new order.  As shifting replicas become frozen through frantic and undefined practice, the viewer is left with a summary of the edges of our future.

 

Alexander Cockwell

My work focuses on the mobile nature of what is means to be male.  The balance between the phallus and its environment is of the utmost interest to me, and drives me ever towards exploration of new mediums and the messages they communicate.

B.J. Goodhead

Male. Female. Who the fuck cares?  Who determines the line between what is this and what is that?  Not me, that’s for damn sure.  I strive to break down the gender divide and challenge traditional notions around appropriate behavior and expression of gender.

C. Michael Hawk

As a Starbucks Artista, my long-running “Coffee Wang” series attempts to highlight the ironic lack of eroticism in our heavily stimulated social consciousness.  By painstakingly yet discreetly crafting deviant pictographic foam art in caffeinated corporate product, my work intends to broaden erotic awareness and stick it to The Man.

 

Madam Mulva Johnson

Anyone can make a replica of male genitalia.  It takes no talent to scrawl out a crude depiction of a schlong.  A true artiste can evoke the penis without the vulgarity of the presence of the penis.  Madam Johnson IS a celebration of the wang.

 

bogohulan KURAC

(In the Artist’s native Croatian) Izvorno iz Hrvatska, rad Bogohulan KURAC govori o multi-dimenzionalan svijesti dajući gledatelju priliku da uđe u alternativne svemire, što se smatra fantastičnim, ali mogu ipak postati uobičajena. Svjetovi u kojima se manifestira stvaranjem u bezbroj oblika dolaze iz gotovo poznatih i drugih više stranac, ljepši. Ovaj kozmologija kaže da mjesta za beskonačan manifestacija u beskrajne svemira. Ono što počinje kao viziju uskoro postaje izgrižen u tragediju nevolji, ostavljajući samo osjećaj strah i mogućnost nove stvarnosti.

PHALLIS

PHALLIS strives ceaselessly to transcend the underlying metaphor. PHALLIS rejects the tyranny of convention. PHALLIS demands uncompromised commitment to the continuous actualization of the emergent paradigm.

Open yourself, to PHALLIS.

Dr. Richard Stinkbeard

Dr. Richard Stinkbeard is an archaeologist who specializes in ethnohistoric and demographic problems. In recent years his work has led him into Geographic Information Systems (GIS) approaches to these issues. He has conducted research in Mexico and in the northeastern region of North America, where his work on the Iroquois is particularly well known. His current research includes cyberinfrastructure and the development of large GIS databases designed to explore large-scale population movements over time and space. He is also currently researching the sexual dimorphism of human handprints, hand stencils, and artwork in the Upper Paleolithic caves of France and Spain.

 

Mary Thompson

Combining images of  naive innocence with the erotic, Mary Thompson seeks to explore the societal barriers around the coming of age and the exploration of one’s inner, sexual self.

Merisa Tentakaru

My artwork explores the nature of the penis is represented by the tentacles of the Japanese culture. When I work, I my father, am feeling kinky artist stepping into shoes previously. Light penis is an object of pleasure, and I will try to radiate the warmth and colors of my paintings, such as sperm bukakke.

 

Richard Moerhas

As a small child growing up in the Midwest, the ideals of masculinity that I was presented with always caused me to question my place in this world.  I have never been able to fit into the mold of what was expected of me from the traditional gender roles of that period in time and geographical misplacement.  Never able to grow even the patchiest of mustaches or build the physique that was expected of a third generation farmer, I turned my focus instead towards the design and development of jewelry.  As a reflection of my struggles in finding my place in this world, much of my work focuses on the more primal aspects of male sexuality.

S.A.C.

The Social Art Collective does not believe in putting any individual artist in the spotlight, as it degrades the power behind the message we’re putting out into the world. We are anonymous and therefore fully in touch with our artwork. We focus instead on making work that forces humanity to confront the core truths about the society we live in and the corruption inherit within.

 An anonymous donation to the collection, we have it on good authority that this is the work of non other than ‘Spanksy’, notorious counterculture artist and social commentator.  One can only imagine what message is meant to be communicated through Cringebears!

 Sculpture is the lifeblood that surges through me, filling me, bolstering me. Propping me up when all other pursuits in life remain flaccid.

In my work, I attempt to thrust a variety of societal issues into the spotlight, from rigid social mores, to the increasing sense of impotence felt by the “average” man, falling on hard times and needing a hand, job, or offering of food.  I invite my viewers to take a penetrating look, at themselves, at each other.  From the erection of giant monuments, to the dissemination of countless tiny reproductions, I work with all shapes and sizes.  I have even slipped my work, unnoticed, into the city’s dark, secret places, where evidence of my sweaty, often dirty work is only discovered by a shocked but appreciative public in the morning.  I am able to issue a very slick offering, having confidence in my performance, even under conditions that would give a lesser artist deflating anxiety.

Before embarking on a new work, I prostrate myself in deference to my Muse, opening myself to whatever grand new piece She has in store for me.  Once inspired, I work tirelessly at engulfing the strange new piece, taking it all in, the heft and girth of the concept stretching my mind to new dimensions.  Only then do I explode into my workshop, releasing the flood of my pent-up ideas.

In my workshop, I always keep a variety of tools close at hand.  When diving in, one never knows what tool will satisfy the needs of a given project.  From ball peen hammers and rods, to screws and nuts, from routers and rimmers, to postholers and pile drivers– I utilize any and all tools to get bring the orgiastic frenzy of activity to a satisfying conclusion.

In recent times, I have been inspired to work ever-larger.  Obelisks, granaries, even sky-scrapers now invade my dreams and arouse my thoughts to a fever pitch as I work.  One day, I hope to display a huge piece downtown, that will jut high into the city’s skyline, the envy of its neighbors.  In fact, I am in negotiations to bring about such an unveiling– a recent email has offered me new opportunities in achieving heretofore unheard of dimensions.  I will go to great lengths to realize these dreams.  But until such time, I am humbled by the words of one of my inspirations, Epididymis, who said “Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not”.

Grab hold with both hands, friends.  It’s going to be a wild ride.
