Yale Student Uses Abortions To Create “Art”
You read that headline right, it means exactly what it says. A senior from Yale University got the idea to submit herself to a strange ritual for nine months.
«Beginning next Tuesday, Shvarts will be displaying her senior art project, a documentation of a nine-month process during which she artificially inseminated herself “as often as possible” while periodically taking abortifacient drugs to induce miscarriages. Her exhibition will feature video recordings of these forced miscarriages as well as preserved collections of the blood from the process.»
And what, pray tell, could she produce with those “art supplies”?
«The display of Schvarts’ project will feature a large cube suspended from the ceiling of a room in the gallery of Green Hall. Schvarts will wrap hundreds of feet of plastic sheeting around this cube; lined between layers of the sheeting will be the blood from Schvarts’ self-induced miscarriages mixed with Vaseline in order to prevent the blood from drying and to extend the blood throughout the plastic sheeting.
Schvarts will then project recorded videos onto the four sides of the cube. These videos, captured on a VHS camcorder, will show her experiencing miscarriages in her bathrooom tub, she said. Similar videos will be projected onto the walls of the room.»
Fuckin’ abstract crap. Why do people seem to justify their weird perversions with the “but it’s art” defense? No it’s not art, it’ a moral atrocity and a biohazard. Does this even help the discussion? I don’t think so.
What’s next? Is someone going to use Iraqi civilian and American Veteran’s body parts to protest the war in Iraq? Is there nothing that’s off limits in today’s society?
I think someone payed too much money for her college education. It obviously didn’t do her any good. That money should have been spent feeding AIDS orphans instead.
Little Ms. Ivy League should have learned the definition of “commodity” by now and should have realized life doesn’t fall in that category.
Full article HERE. Thanks to the Wonkette for bringing this up. I am thoroughly disgusted. Ugh.
UPDATE:
Student at the center of the controversy speaks out. (Found this at Perez Hilton of all places!)
Can we say “pretentious, self-important crazy nut”?
UPDATE PART DEUX: Turns out crazy nutter is also a liar. The whole thing is a hoax. THANK GOD. HuffPo article explaining everything is HERE. Funnier article from Jezebel.com is HERE. (One comment on that site simply reads: “The bar has been raised Ashton Kutcher”. LMAO.)
I am so very glad this turned out to be fake. But the reporter at the Yale newspaper should be fired. Oh and BTW, Bush went to Yale. That proves they’ll let anyone into that school.
UPDATE PART TROIS: Oh for shit’s sake. Now our little Menstrual Monet is claiming the Yale press release that called her project “creative fiction” was the real fiction. She’s sticking to her slimy, disgusting story.
If this crazy female wants to fight for her right to go down as the weirdest woman in history, then one thing has to be true: she needs a shrink. Jezebel article HERE.
UPDATE PART QUATRE: The freak has been banned from the art show unless she signs a document that says it was all fake. HAHAHA, seems like she’s in a bit of a conundrum. Click HERE for article.
