Nicole Piar, Ghostkitten.com, designer and illustrator
The cover design and illustrations of Dr. Peter T. Pacik’s book “When Sex Seems Impossible: Stories of Vaginismus and How You Can Achieve Intimacy” were created by my daughter, Nicole Piar of Ghostkitten.com. Nicole worked with Dr. Pacik and myself to create meaningful illustrations for the book that women with vaginismus could relate to. The cover illustration depicts a woman enjoying her full luscious sensuality. She is at ease in her body and fearless in her sexuality. Women suffering from vaginismus often feel unfairly cut off from the sexual bliss that appears to come so effortlessly for some. The dark horizontal bands refer to this feeling of being barred off or separated from their own sexual fulfillment. The five black and white illustrations scattered across the book mark the journey of healing. A flower is the sexual organ of a plant. The slow blooming of the flower woman in the illustrations is a metaphor for emotional opening and blossoming sexuality.
