About

The Big Rip is a piece inspired by the time my vagina was ripped open by forceful penetrative sex. It was the most painful experience of my life, and I still have a scar on my perineum. Being intimate with someone who does not understand or respect your vaginismus/vulvodynia is a horrendous and impossible experience.
