Exploring areas of modern eroticism, Merry Saddles Erotic Cycling Supply is a series of mixed media artworks that ranges from witty and subtle to raunchy and in your face. Manipulating the technology of the bicycle with the incorporation of erotic devices, these works dismantle traditional sexual taboos and clue audiences into the fact that women can be just as sexually lascivious as men. Straddling the tenuous line of art and pornography, these "fine art products” of Merry Saddles include a variety of items from nineteenth-century advertisement-style lithographic prints and hand bound erotic artist books to “bedroom bicycles” individually adorned with fanciful costumes and assorted erotic attachments.
The fine art products of Merry Saddles have adapted a seductive and liberating context, questioning ideas of perversion and the social construction of hysteria along gender-defined divisions. The artworks investigate intellections of desire, the female fetish, voyeurism, and the ambiguous spaces of sexual attraction. Specifically, this peculiar space can be referred to as Pedalphilia, the erotic attraction or sexual contact with bicycles.
