Tom Bagshaw. Fecund. Edition Size: 50. 13 x 16 Inches Archival Pigment Print on 330gsm Water Color Cotton Paper. $ 50.00. "This was one of those few and far between pieces where the image arrives in your head pretty much fully formed (it doesn't happen to me often!), the idea of a strawberry skinned girl, licking her hand where she was bruised or cut, a very cannibalistic image really, but with a more suggestive edge. I came really close to naming her Christine after the Siouxsie & the Banshees song but that wasn't actually the idea behind the piece so stayed away from it. Because I had such a clear image in mind, when it came to shooting some reference images, I think it took all of 5 mins with the lovely model who must've thought it was the fastest job ever!" - Tom Bagshaw.
