Editorial: Santa Baby
….Santa Baby, do you hear me?
Our latest editorial is Influenced by Y2K vibes, artist VIRGEN MARIA takes center stage in “Santa Baby.” Drawing inspiration from Christmas classics like “The Nutcracker,” “A Christmas Carol,” and pin-up girl calendars. “Santa Baby” pays homage to the iconic image of Carmen Electra while challenging the stereotypical “sexbomb” portrayal that became more of a burden than a compliment for ’90s icons like Pamela Anderson, Janet Jackson, and Electra herself. It’s not surprising that in recent years, there has been a strong critical reevaluation of how the industry treated these women, granting them the opportunity and voice to demand the justice they were denied in the past. Our protagonist, VIRGEN MARIA, much like Carmen Electra, embodies the concept of “Santa Baby,” redefined by the culture of the obscene. They own the scene, they are everything.
