About The Artwork

Vasectomy: An Incision in Parts is an experimental poem that takes the scientific method for its structure, appropriating it to call out our arrogance in attempting to parcel out the body and nature into neat scientific formats, as well as to explore the unequal weight placed on the female body in terms of both reproduction and birth control.

This poem also uses playful rhyme to balance the bluntly scatological—menstruation, condoms, lactation–with the lyrical.

Awarded a Sevens Foundation x Playboy grant.
