Zinteta says that she began leaning into this aesthetic following the response she received from her original menstruation series. The project was called I Stain and I’m Not Disgusted.

“Through this, I began painting underwear emulating menstruation stains but with colorful watercolors. After painting them I thought about transferring them to the body and photographing them, taking the project to the skin itself,” Zinteta tells ViralThread.
