Nina Park is an artist originally from Antwerp who was wandering around the world for eight years before she decided to settle in Argentina. She’s finally presenting her new collection of work, "Deep Throat Puking": art pieces made completely by using her own colored vomit. It looks sort of like that cute spin-art stuff, only completely fucking foul.
Vice: When did you realize brushes weren't for you?
Nina Park: I realized I wanted to paint with my vomit when, at age eight, I vomited on a sheet after eating my crayons: neon vomit.
What about those 32 people who puked while staring at your work?
Well, I get different kinds of reactions. Sometimes I hear comments of my work such as, “Oh shit. How the fuck does this girl get away with that?” Or “Bravo, Nina, this is the sickest thing I’ve seen since The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.”
What would you be doing if you weren't an artist?
I would be mopping the bathroom floor of a Belgium drinking hole.
What elements of your artwork have continued over the years?
Bright colors are still here.
What would you do to convince people to your see your work?
Seriously, who the fuck comes to this site hoping to see vomit?
What is your inspiration right now?
I’ve thinking a lot lately about Michael Jackson’s fortune. Tito, Jermaine, and Poppa Joe can't get it all!
What would you say to young artists?
Vivienne Westwood for president.
Future plans?
I’m thinking about launching a merchandise shop inspired in my work: tie-dyed shirts with vomit.

Wretched. My friend tried this technique out for a few months in college. You have to have to be strong to stomach vomiting so much.

"Deep Throat Puking" sounds like something that happens during oral sex. Gag reflex and all that.

I guess you can say its artwork on paper, unless you know how it was made with puke, and then it's disgusting.

Not really the first to use that technique, so maybe it was an idea to show some of the girls work?
Posted by: Michael | 01/08/2009 at 10:35
Oh shit I just realized she did.. wow! Vice.... really?
Posted by: Michael | 01/08/2009 at 10:40
pretension at its mediocre-est.
Posted by: justin | 01/08/2009 at 16:39
Pretty much the stupidest thing ever, it's revolting how really overly subjective art has become. Next she should do lines of coke and the blood from her nose bleeds can be my new wall canvas.

It would be fucking dope if you were fucking her reverse-cowgirl and she puked on your chest and you were like, "Bitch, are you Peruvian?", and then her flesh would fall away like a ribbed tube that toddlers play in, revealing Megan Fox, and then you were the master! Also: lol at Amanda.

This is not a new concept. Research it. It dates back to the Dadaists.
tsk.
