‘A NEW VISUAL GAME PROMOTING PUSSY DIVERSITY’ BY ‘BING({‘})H’ {WATERCOLOR/ARTIST TO WATCH/STUDIO VISIT}

Watercolor artist Mona (Simone) Orgel, also known as Bing({‘})h (Bingoh), brought us into her studio for today’s exclusive NAKID artist to watch feature.

Spanning various disciplines ranging from sexual education to feminism to art, Bing({‘})h is at once artistic exploration and sex education. The interactive project is designed to gather and verify vulva terms from around the globe, informing a selection of hand-painted vulva symbols by artist Mona Orgel. Bing({‘})h currently comprises a collection of over 180 terms, ranging from the endearing American ‘pussy’ to the cringe-worthy Australian ‘axe wound’. Transporting the message of a healthy body image, the project aims to challenge existing taboos surrounding the appearance of the vulva and its misleading portrayal in the media. Raising awareness for the issue, Bing({‘})h encourages exchange and learning through the vehicle of play. The Bing({‘})h project is not a commercial venture but lives on funding and the help of generous supporters.

In her work, Mona Orgel deals with complex issues, always striving to facilitate a simplified approach. Born in Munich, Mona has been working as an artist in Berlin since 2004. Working with various media and materials, including watercolour studies, sculptures, welding, woodcarving, filming, virtual reality or game, her artistic ventures lend themselves to enhancing community. Projects include the series “Über den Lauf des Lebens – Serie von Objekten über Werden und Vergehen” (On the Course of Life – A Series of Objects about Life and Death), 2003-4 presented in Munich’s City Library and the Deutsches Herzzentrum. Upon concluding her research project on local identity in 2013, Mona worked in close cooperation with Verena Bunkus on the short film “StadtGeSchichten – мІсторії Львова”. The film debuted in Leviv, Ukraine and was later presented in Munich and Berlin.
