That's Mr Pussy To You

From a VV article on the work of one Julie Atlas Muz:
'And then there's Mr. Pussy, who is, in fact, Muz's actual private part, best known for his signature handlebar mustache, as well as his smoking habits— cigars, cigarettes, pipes—and impressive collection of hats. (Including a turban.) In a video installation, Muz even makes him talk. She first discovered him five or six years ago: "I would bring people into the bathroom and do little puppet shows with my vagina," she says, adding, "I was stone-cold sober."
Mr. Pussy soon took on a life of his own, and now has his own beauty regime. "There was a very long, awkward phase," Muz says. "He would get into everything. He would sometimes close shut and turn into a chastity belt of woven hair. He's got split ends, and I need to trim it and condition it." Other than that, "I don't know that much about him," she says. "I don't understand him—he's come out of me. As an exhibitionist, I don't have any shame. That's a positive thing."'
