This image is of the high priestess' of the Church of the Clitori dressed in rich colours of orange, pink and gold. One priestess is looking at the woman on the right while she wears a glittery pink cape and is looking directly at the camera with a cheeky grin.
The two women are standing on the train tracks that are covered in water in front of an old brick abandoned train tunnel.

If this is what church is like then sign me up! At this church it’s time to throw off the shackles of the patriarchy, embrace the Divine feminine and bring the world back into balance by worshipping the Holy Clit. ...The service was led with flair and charisma by the fabulous High priestess and The Labias. It was funny, sexy and a celebration of body positivity and pleasure. And this show’s not just for the ladies. There were many men in the audience and they seemed to be enjoying themselves just as much as the women. And let me tell you, if you haven’t been baptized by walking through a giant vulva on stage, you haven’t Fringed properly. This is an hour of fun you won’t forget. I highly recommend it."

"...a stunning performance with strong character and impressive vocal range. The audience were relaxed and eager to be involved, participating in singing church hymns (such as This little Clit of mine and Amazing Clit) and interacting with the performers during the service. It was a fun, humorous, educational and inspiring show suitable and probably essential for every adult who has a vagina, or a partner with one." Hi Fi Way

"...This “Wake-Up to HER-story!” ...is fun and provocative but not cheaply offensive or overly sacrilegious for mere shock laughs. If not for the large amount of ‘sexual references’ that push this into M15+territory most of the show would pass as PG, as apart from vulvic costuming, and diagrammatic illustration, all organs remained discreetly hidden... Ideally go with a large group..." Australian Arts Review
