@Sardonicus lovely and troubling. It is, of course, a woman who seems almost asleep and expressionless who opens her heart and invites others to walk through her. What would be the impact of a man, a child?

It reminds me a lot of the statues in Gris.

@Sardonicus Creepy, and now a bigger statue with legs open.

@Sardonicus There's a couple wood versions of these at the Morton Arboretum for anyone in the Chicago area willing to schlep out there.

Imagine that the subject of this sculpture was male. It would automatically be perceived as gay. Because viewers are assumed to be male. This is the definition of "male gaze"
