Somewhere uncomfortable between the glut of sexy-woman adverts and feminist critique sit Julie Pochron’s photomontages. Witty pairings of slinky legs, a sleek back, and a black lace-encased crotch with oversized food stuffs make for a queasy meal, depending on what you hunger for. Cherry pie—or some hot porn star with the name Cheri Pi? We all know well enough by now that (female) sex sells, but yet we keep buying it, or whatever it’s selling. Hot legs balancing over a giant luscious cupcake make the point by exaggeration, but they look a little too good to keep most—or at least some—of us from wanting to eat it all up.
