Watch: A piece of art that smells like vagina
De Cupere has crafted a statue of the Madonna that smells like vagina
For the ones who are not aware of an olfactory artist this may sure come as a surprise of what one among their clan has created. Olfactory Art is a contemporary modality of expression in which creators intentionally engage a very unique human sense in their practice - that of smell.
Through innovative, multidisciplinary, and aesthetical approaches to art involving olfaction, contemporary creators are harnessing the unique dynamics of this system. One among them is Peter De Cupere, who recently created a piece entitling “The Deflowering” that smell like a vagina.
De Cupere has crafted a statue of the Madonna made from what he refers to as "frozen holy water. When the Madonna melts the vaginal scent starts to mix with the holy water. In the room you start smelling the beauty of a woman. When touching the melted liquid, the original vaginal scent stays on your finger for a long time.
According to their official website it took them years to somehow manage to capture the treasured organic vaginal scent. The scent is a mix of different women, of different origin and is a tribute to the freedom of being a free woman, exploring your sexual desires.
