Studio Cremaster and artist Bastiaan Buijs have created two sex toy prototypes, one for men and one for women that are as much about the visual effect as they are the sexual one.
‘My designs are on the edge of art and function,’ says Buijs, aiming to ‘make sexual taboos discussable.’
Grandfather Clock Dildo
The first is a Grandfather Clock dildo which is actually a fully functional brass and metal grandfather clock mechanism housed inside an elegant hand blown glass tube. It is hand wound like most grandfather clocks and is as fitting on display as it is well lets just say the other place.
The Satyr
The second is for men and called the ‘Satyr’ which is similar to a vaulting horse and has vibrating silicone seat with a hole on one end, so basically a masturbating stool!
Bastiaan’s aim is to firstly create beautiful objects and secondly ones that create pleasure. As Buijs explains: ‘In both my projects I tried to grasp something beautiful. ‘ It is the moralisation of ordinary sex toys, he says, that will allow people to break down the barriers of taboo. We think it is very creative though don’t expect to see these products on a sex toy site anytime soon!
