London based jewelry designer Solange Azagury-Partridge creates wildly original and metaphorical pieces. Her work treads the line between the mystical and the irreverent, fashioned with poetic depth and intricacy. Above, the Group Sex Necklace.

We just came across a London-based design house that specializes in handmade corsets, clothing and accessories made of leather, satin, latex, and leatherette (for those of you who prefer to be leather-free).

I read an interesting write-up of FGT that raises the theory of the male gaze. The trouble with gaze theory is that it presumes that ‘female gaze’ must be a simple inversion of content. What gaze theory doesn’t allow for is the likelihood that women don’t necessarily experience images the way men do. And then there’s this.
That said, I always enjoy a great photo of a man’s forearms, shoulders, and a good hard dick.

For those in New York, Bette Gordon’s 1984 film Variety will be showing today at 5pm as part of the Tribeca Film Festival.
In Bette Gordon’s pioneering indie film about voyeurism from a female perspective, a young woman (played by Sandy McLeod) works as a ticket taker in a porn theater, and her curiosity leads her to shadow a male patron. Variety radically subverts the classic narrative mode of presenting stories from the perspective of the male gaze (exemplified by such films as Michael Powell’s Peeping Tom and Alfred Hitchcock’s Vertigo), and in its place asserts the presence of female desire. Female director Bette Gordon subtly infuses the narrative with layers of ambiguity about the motives and movements of the female protagonist all the way through to the final image of the film.
Advance tickets are gone, but if you get there early, you might make it in.
