She sat on the stairs in front of a library at the University of Texas library where she\u2019s an undergraduate.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"910\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ip0ugtycyrA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>It was a performance piece she\u2019d been considering doing for about a month. One in which she\u00a0had headphones on and red scarf around her eyes. She had talked with her friends, some professors and even her mom about doing it.<\/p>\n<p>She&#8217;d researched Texas nudity law. She wanted to spark a conversation without breaking the law. She found out how naked one could get without technically breaking a nudity law.<\/p>\n<h3>It was not a protest she said but a performance piece. If that sounds like an artist thing to say it\u2019s because she\u2019s an artist. She&#8217;s working on getting a Bachelor in Fine Arts.<\/h3>\n<p>When asked what inspired her she said:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was a survivor of being sexually assaulted. I don\u2019t want to go in depth about my personal experience. It\u2019s my body and I\u2019m taking it back, my ownership of it. 1 in 4 girls have been sexually assaulted. It\u2019s sad that it\u2019s that common but it needs to be talked about. I just feel if we come together and express it. It\u2019s o.k. to talk about this kind of stuff, it\u2019s like an emotional outlet. For me personally, it\u2019s hard to deal with when something like that happens to you. But, me &#8211; I have to express myself when it comes to anything. This is a way to express how I feel about this type of topic.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She wanted to support women &#8211; herself and others. She invited everyone to think.<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-215 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/healwritenow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/slide2-300x224.jpg\" alt=\"slide2\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" srcset=\"https:\/\/healwritenow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/slide2-300x224.jpg 300w, https:\/\/healwritenow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/slide2.jpg 558w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I fist pumped the air in solidarity when I heard about Rotsvold speak about her performance piece and process.<\/p>\n<p>She had wondered what\u2019s the big deal with women\u2019s naked bodies? She wonders why our bodies are so objectified and sexualized. It\u2019s a topic she takes on in her art when she has men pose in what are considered feminine postures.<\/p>\n<h3>In her own artist statement she wrote: \u201cBeing a female artist its hard not to recognize how overly sexualized women are in societies culture. Pop culture, as a young girl, told me how to be a seductive woman. While, Personal experiences lead me to question ideas about sensuality. My vibrant color scheme and contemporary subject matter I deconstruct what is socially considered sexy.\u201d<\/h3>\n<p>Check out her <a href=\"https:\/\/monikarostvold.wordpress.com\/\" class=\"broken_link\" rel=\"nofollow\">art.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>She&#8217;s been thinking about these issues for a while.<\/p>\n<p>She revealed her own naked form sans the objectification and sexualization. She chose to be in public with wearing virtually the same amount of nudity as shown by women in ads or music videos.<\/p>\n<p>She wondered how people would react and how she\u2019d feel in public, basically nude, by her own choice.<\/p>\n<p>She said she had to get in her body and in a meditative state to deal with the fear and discomfort and heart-pounding she felt.<\/p>\n<h3>I can\u2019t stop thinking about it.\u00a0She said it was meant to spark conversation. It did. I\u2019ve been have non-stop conversations with my own damn self for days.<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>What is sexuality?<\/p>\n<p>What is empowerment?<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to nudity who gets to say how much skin is shown or what is beautiful, legal and socially acceptable?<\/p>\n<h3>I wonder what would have happened if this was done by a woman of color, a woman at 60 and also varied men. It would be interesting to film and compare those scenarios too.<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-2127\" src=\"https:\/\/healwritenow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Bellafiore-drawing-of-performance-209x300.jpg\" alt=\"Bellafiore drawing of performance\" width=\"209\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/healwritenow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Bellafiore-drawing-of-performance-209x300.jpg 209w, https:\/\/healwritenow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Bellafiore-drawing-of-performance.jpg 628w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 209px) 100vw, 209px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I love her direct involvement with and engagement in community. It keeps questions less distant and abstract and philosophical. She wasn\u2019t just talking in a dorm room at 2 a.m. (though that\u2019s fabulous too) but she living out her questions.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>By using her own body in art and performance she made think and feel new things about the way is which women are objectified and sexualized.<\/p>\n<p>She expressed herself with her full self. She made politics and arts not by &#8220;using&#8221; her body but by being in her body as she chose to be.<\/p>\n<p>She said it wasn&#8217;t a protest and I get and respect that. But it was still political in the way the feminist dictum states that the personal <em>is<\/em> political. Personal-political to me includes writing, art and how we live and inhabit our skin.<\/p>\n<p>Her piece\u00a0makes me wonder how I\u2019d have regarded her on the stairs. Would I think she\u2019s brave, wild, crazy or maybe even cold or on drugs? Would I have stood watching, cheered, asked if she was o.k.?<\/p>\n<p>How would I feel doing the same thing? Empowered? Vulnerable? Ashamed?<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t want to try this experiment but I want to push myself more.<\/p>\n<p>When not making art &#8211; how do I live?<\/p>\n<p>I want to consider with fresh insights my own life history and assumptions.<\/p>\n<p>When did I lose my body? When did I reclaim it exactly? When did my body become a thing, an object and a container that could be lost or reclaimed?<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not until my 40\u2019s that I felt &#8211; feel &#8211; fully inhabited in my body, skin and self. And that does wonderful things for feeling free and empowered in and out of the bedroom. It changes the way I work and live and feel.<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1938 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/healwritenow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/10446523_10204103452377354_5214826007521967055_n-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"10446523_10204103452377354_5214826007521967055_n\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/healwritenow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/10446523_10204103452377354_5214826007521967055_n-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/healwritenow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/10446523_10204103452377354_5214826007521967055_n.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Why did it take that long?

I&#8217;m inspired to see how each is a paint color and she helped them blend into a beautiful portrait towards change. And community.

This piece is part of my own writer social experiment. I write for Elephant Journal and I&#8217;ve noticed that articles with nudity in the title get read FAR MORE often than any others. So, I wanted to see if that would be true for me and my writing if I addressed nudity in a way that&#8217;s true to who and how I am because I&#8217;m fascinated and curious. We&#8217;ll see&#8230; I&#8217;ll make a comment in a month.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Sources &amp; More<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>To Watch the video including how the police on campus responded to her, how other students did and to read the range of comments too:<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watchv=ip0ugtycyrA<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/monikarostvold.wordpress.com\/artistic-statement\/<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=h-ADhE_StNM\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=hADhE_StNM<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Monika Rostvold\u00a0wore pasties and a matched-her-skin thong bought at Target.
