Orlan

I think That Orlan is a strange artist, and her performance of being paid to give a kiss it’s very weird, the most important thing of this piece of art for me, are the coins, because you can interpret that in different ways, for me, it refers to prostitutes.
The thing that I liked is the way that she uses her body to give messages to the society. She wants to show us through her body her ideas about different things that happen in our life.
I agree with her way of art, because her life change, and she decided to give messages to society through her body, and it’s good, because if she wants to show blood, or other weird things, she do it with her body, what I mean is that she produce hurt to her body, and not to others.
Her opinion about narcissism and exhibitionism is good for me, she says that don’t really matter be narcissist and exhibitionist, because singers and actors are narcissist and exhibitionist all the time. For me is good be narcissist and exhibitionist, but you know the limit of this, if you are very open to the society, they can interfere in your life, and they can hurt you, so you have to show, in the case of artist, things that you can to express, and I know what I’m saying, because I am an artist and I want to be famous some day.
