fig 39.2 yoke is a ceramic sculpture that weaves together elements of human, animal, and industrial aesthetics, evoking an interplay of desire and function. The glazed ceramic cone, reminiscent of a horn in its shape and through the work’s title, bares a symbolic and sensual connotation. The lustrous exterior and phallic form create an immediate connection to desire, hinting at the sensuality inherent in the piece. The leather strap matches the artist's skin tone, bringing his personal identity into play.
The sculpture hints at an object of utility, a yoke or harness, suggesting that it could be worn or used. The side studs accentuate the object's sensuality, offering a glimpse into the world of desire and fetish. The work is a complex exploration of human desires and the intersection of the primal, the industrial, and the sensual. It challenges preconceived notions of utility, provoking contemplation about the diverse ways in which our desires and fetishes can manifest.
