Adoration of the Vagi. The Exhibition.
This is the final part of a series exploring an artist delighting in the female form. The whole story includes first time, lesbian encounters, masturbation, threesomes and incest. This story is THE climax.
Everyone engaged in sexual activity in this story is at least 18 years old.
.......................
Steve, an artist, advertised for models to be part of a project. They were offered $2000 for a two hour session. When they respond they find out that the artist wants to take photos of their pussies for an artistic project. Grace, Steve's wife was fully supportive, involved and became the model representing women in their 40s. The models who participated came from a variety of ages and backgrounds, including their own teenage daughter.
.......................
Grace was distracted still. Steve wondered if it was because, when they had begun to advertise the exhibition of his collection of photographs 'The Adoration of the Vagi' there HAD been a negative response from some religious conservatives. They had claimed that it was sacrilegious to mock the painting of the three magi coming to adore Jesus. They had contacted the newspapers and had managed to get a story on the local news. For Steve this all counted as extra, welcome publicity. He wasn't worried about it too much. If that was what was worrying Grace then she would be fine.
Steve's idea was way off mark though. Grace was also not worried about the controversy. It was something else completely. Ever since the encounter with Susan Grace had again been recognising that she was drawn, intensely, physically, sexually, to woman. She still loved Steve and their sex life was still magnificent. But something else had been unlocked in her which she had kept safely hidden in her memories from University days.
Women aroused her and the thought of licking and being licked and delighting in sapphic sex kept swirling through her thoughts. That was not all. It had become more confronting than that. Ever since that day she had recognised that she noticed their daughter, Melanie, more. Melanie had developed into a VERY sexy young woman. 18, nearly 19 years old. Ripe. Perfect. Beautiful.
But she was also her daughter and so every time Grace felt herself shuddering as she looked at the hints and glimpses of Mel's breasts and pussy and her whole figure as she moved around the house it was becoming harder to ignore those thoughts.
Something seemed also to have changed in Mel recently. She had been brought in to help with the preparations for the exhibition after the last model had been found and was deeply involved. Mel didn't seem at all surprised when the actual content of her father's latest artistic project had been revealed. She had also not seemed at all embarrassed by all of the photographs of naked women, at least of the parts of the naked women which had been recorded. One reason Grace had not asked more questions about the final model was that her thoughts were far too caught up with imagining what it would have been like to see Mel naked like that.
Now it was the day of the Exhibition. They had wondered where would be the best place to display the photographs and in the end had decided that the studio provided the best place. Usually Steve's photos had been displayed in one of several galleries in the city centre. This time though the negative publicity and the controversial nature had caused them all to be far more reticent to agree.
It didn't matter to Steve. Though this was usually his private space in which to be creative it also meant that the income from the exhibition was completely in his control. He had outlaid a lot of money paying the models, which he could easily afford, but he wanted a fair return on the investment as well as being able to bring his artistic project into the open without pandering to the foibles of those who did not see as he saw.
The photographs were arranged, with carefully placed overhead angled lighting, each as a set. Nine large photographs revealing the pussy of each model, showing the full beauty of each. The range of colours and textures, shape and character of each was displayed in the best way Steve had been able to show. Surrounding each of the photos there were several other photographs of 'detail': close ups, side angles, the particular elements of each pussy revealed.
He had debated this display with Grace and Melanie. It had been part of his initial idea when entering into the project but he had not finally decided on the exact elements. It was the input from Grace and Melanie together which had helped him to clarify how the photographs should best be shown. One very large photograph in which the pussy of each model was displayed almost 1.5m from the top of the clitoral hood to the lower edge of the perineum.
Four other photographs were also displayed, much smaller but still what constituted a large 'poster-like' display, two on either side, revealed the clitoris, anus, lips and vaginal opening of each pussy. What could have been somehow clinical, an anatomical presentation, was actually presented as an offering in celebration of the female form in its most intimate place.
Steve had found a way to deal with the protestors who had turned up to try to disrupt the exhibition. He had invited them inside. As they looked around with increasing embarrassment he had also noticed that several were clearly deeply aroused. Steve had arranged for Melanie to stand in the shadows in the corner, where she explored her own budding photographic skills. She recorded the reactions of the potential protestors and their proximity to the photographs.
The 'opening' was very brief as most of the protestors became so agitated hat they quickly fled outside again. Steve then went out and explained to them that if they, or anyone else, disrupted the exhibition then photographs of them inside, observing and reacting to the display, would be sent to people who would make sure they were widely seen. Astounded and outraged at being blackmailed like this the leaders agreed to disperse and to do all they could to ensure that there was no further disruption. Before leaving they did call down the condemnation of God on Steve and his outrageous display.
Steve ignored them. Not because he did not believe in God but because, in his own understanding, he felt that God would not only approve but recognise that this was art, not pornography. This was not debasing the female form, made in the image of God, but celebrating it in an extraordinary way.
Outside the studio Steve had decided not to display any of the photographs. That might have been a step too far for the local Council authorities. Instead a large banner across the building simply advertised 'The Adoration of the Vagi'.
