Artist sculpts with own fat

An Argentine artist is selling sculptures made out of her own fat which was taken out during a liposuction.

Two kilos of the fat were transformed in two sculptures of the female naked body and are being sold for £250 each.

Called Take a Shower with Me, Nicola Constantino's exhibition also features 100 soaps made with the artist's own fat.

Mrs Constantino told Las Ultimas Noticias: "My work has always been about the body and consumerism.

"I know it is disgusting but I am also aware that those soaps have something that wakes up people's sexuality and eroticism. It is an invitation to put our bodies in contact."

The exhibition is at the Malba museum in Buenos Aires.

maybe we should get some of that fat to kate moss. maybe then she'd stop slipping through the sewer crates in new york.

O.K., very, very, VERY little can actually disgust me... but that's disgusting.

[Scarran Raptor]

she can sculpt stuff out of human fat...I wonder if she can make me a new ass out of the excess inches around my waistline?

[AgentSun]

yeah but you'd have to pay to get the fat out and then pay to get it back!

:hork: I agree with DB....

Yum.

Fantastic.

[Scarran Raptor]

is this what they mean by liposculpting? or is my idea for a really sculpted ass not all it's cracked up to be?

[Antrobus]

Well, I'll keep that in mind. If there's ever a shortage of soap, I now know that I can always remove some of my own body fat and make a my own bar. :rolleyes:

He should, indeed. Perhaps he will. :)
