Charlie Murphy’s extensive series of one off ‘kiss’ sculptures, collected over many years on her ‘kiss-in’ event tour , are created using a dental alginate to take a detailed impression of the inside of a kiss and then transformed into a negative space inside a block of optical glass.
Each mouth and style of kissing is different, so each kiss sculpture is completely unique.
This extensive survey of the many different forms of the kiss form a major part of her ‘Anatomy of Desire’ project which has been exhibited at the Wellcome Collection, London , The Wilson Cheltenham Art Gallery and Museum’s and The Gallery at the Arts Institute, Bournemouth.
You can commission your own unique kiss sculpture!.
