Lipstick on Mirror, Installation and Performance.

Part of “Renovate” at Shoreditch Town Hall, Curated by Alice Sharp,1998.

In this space, a woman’s toilet, two mirrors were opposite each other creating an infinity of reflections. I wanted to make a painting with my lips both in order to show my devotion to painting and to make a physical representation of love. By kissing my reflection over and over again, I was also exploring the fine line between self love and vanity, like Narcissus, who drowned in his own reflection. Here I am drowning not only myself, but the viewer too, in a sea of kisses
