Fiona Banner

Some of Fiona Banner’s work centres around pornography, notably, in part of her 2002 Turner Prize installation, Arsewoman in Wonderland. Above is a more recent piece - Striptease (2009). It is a storyboard for a pornographic film, yet the images are clearly absent and the text is somewhat richer than expected:

“Hamstrings stretched taught behind blue vein pulsing, paper-thin eye lashes. Wet eyes.”
