Oh fuck us with a syringe and upload the video already. Aliza Shvarts, an artiste currently going through a much-publicized Red Period, is reportedly upset that Yale has come forth saying her “one girl, one cup” style self-induced pregnancy and abortion senior project never involved actual pregnancy or abortion:

The supposed senior art project of the Davenport College senior was a “creative fiction,” a Yale official said Thursday afternoon as students on campus and bloggers across the country expressed colossal outrage over what Shvarts described as a documentation of a nine-month process during which she claimed to have artificially inseminated herself “as often as possible” while periodically taking “abortifacient drugs” to induce miscarriages.

“The entire project is an art piece, a creative fiction designed to draw attention to the ambiguity surrounding form and function of a woman’s body,” Yale spokeswoman Helaine Klasky said in a written statement e-mailed to the News this afternoon.

But Shvarts stood by her project, calling the University’s statement “ultimately inaccurate.”

The form and function of this particular woman’s body is, currently, to roll its eyes and wonder where she hid that last bottle of cough syrup.

“No one can say with 100-percent certainty that anything in the piece did or did not happen,” Shvarts said, “because the nature of the piece is that it did not consist of certainties.”

This afternoon, Shvarts showed the News footage from tapes she plans to play at the exhibit. The tapes depict Shvarts — sometimes naked, sometimes clothed — alone in a shower stall bleeding into a cup.

This Bloody Mary suddenly tastes horrible.
