Fucked Up?
Juliette Schraauwers
At first glance, Juliette Schraauwer’s book is crude and coarse. But her satirical take on sex education is more than just a vulgar joke. The intentional shock value aims to provoke a discussion on the growing sexualisation of our society and its effect on children and adolescents. Her project poses questions about the unrestricted access to online pornography. It also points to the increasingly brutal and bizarre landscape of the porn industry, which is radically different from the glamour depicted in ‘Playboy’ 30 years ago. How does all this ultimately distort children’s views on sex and relationships?
