This document summarizes a creative assignment for an art workshop on the topic of menstruation. It discusses using installation art to portray periods as normal, not dirty. It describes incorporating a classmate's ideas about feelings of shame related to menstruation. Stylistic influences discussed include the "ugly aesthetics" of Victor Hugo Perez Farias, the humorous figures of Yeung Tung Lung, and the collage effect of David Salle. The artwork created applies these influences to portray treating menstruation as a natural process rather than something shameful.

9. “Period is a kind of Grace”
• The Homecoming Dads nowadays have to abandon patriarchic thoughts by
offering tendered cares to their beloved companions. If a Homecoming
Dad dares to purchase sanitary napkins from the supermarket or the
shopping arcade for their horny wives without any fear of being criticized
as a sexual pervert by the salesladies and the customers nearby, it proves
that he can courageously transcend the gender-censorship thoughts of
this secular world and accomplish a truthful loyalty to your marriage life.
• Indeed, do not treat the coming of menstruations as a dirty kind of shame,
or else you will become as desperate as suffering from the obsessive-
compulsive order. If you treat menstruation as a kind of nourishments
from our Creator, you will feel as refreshed as applying cosmetic mask
onto your moisturized face.
