Hannah Wilke made her signature vaginal sculptures from
chewing gum which she formed into intricate shapes and placed on her body for the S.O.S. photographic series. Wilke
also placed gum sculptures on postcards, in small boxes, on sheets of paper and on multiple grids of paper. She made
kneaded erasers into vaginal shapes she placed on architectural and landscape postcards and made a series called "Needed-Erase-Her,"
kneaded eraser sculptures on flat painted boards arranged in minimalist, geometric and free-form patterns.
