This series highlights guest curator invited artist's own words about the work they've done for this year's Seattle Erotic Art Festival. Today's artist: Cable Griffith

Painted on separate layers of clear vinyl, these pieces accumulate linear forms, taken from softcore pornographic images.  Individually, these forms reference the sexually charged poses by female models.  Collectively, they become clusters of lines and abstract forms, that reveal their sensuality over time.  The monochromatic palette separates and unifies each layer to reveal and hide the references and relationships. Once revealed, the individual lines push against their relationship to the whole, yet remain tangled within confused, suggestive clusters.

I'm especially looking forward to SEAF, as I've never even been before, let alone participated as an artist.  So, I have no idea what to expect, and I'm looking forward to losing my SEAF virginity.  I've also been waiting for an opportunity to wear my leather-studded lederhosen bondage cat suit in public.
