Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Vertical axis reflection ambigram. This symmetrical word reads Cunnilingus from left to right and from right to left. A heart below can remind a female sex, related to the meaning of the ambigram. The three letters U, I and L are naturally symmetric, while others are specifically shaped to create this visual palindrome. There is a humorous intention to create an aesthetic object from a taboo sexual practice. The animated GIF rotates on itself indefinitely along the vertical axis.

Similar sexually connoted ambigrams have been published in books like Ambigrams Revealed, for example Love Fuck page 149 designed by professional calligrapher Seb Lester. The drawing Sex, Drugs & Rock n Roll by artist Awang Purba, page 151, is also displayed on the cover of the book (at the upper left corner). And the artwork I love sex produced by the author of the publication, is the same kind. As a result, this image released in the public domain could be used for similar purpose. Humor often helps to understand calligraphic tricks.

It is a humble artistic material to illustrate literary palindromes, like "Sex at noon taxes" (14 letters that can be read forward and backward), by famous writer Sally Van Doren, the title of the book containing poems on the same topic.
Français : Ce mot symétrique se lit Cunnilingus de gauche à droite et de droite à gauche. Un coeur au-dessous peut évoquer un sexe féminin, symbole lié à la signification de l'ambigramme. Les trois lettres U, I et L sont naturellement symétriques, tandis que d'autres sont spécifiquement formées pour créer ce palindrome visuel. Il y a ici une intention humoristique de créer un objet esthétique à partir d'une pratique sexuelle tabou. Le GIF animé tourne indéfiniment sur lui-même le long de l'axe vertical.
