Amazing tampon creation

[Gamby6]

It's amazing that how tampons, something people perceive as eww factors, could be transformed into such a beautiful creation. Would you install it in your place?

That's amazing... I looked for more photos of it and found these:

It was created by Portuguese artistst Joana Vasconcelos. Named “A Noiva”, which translates as The Bride, the 5-meter-high tampon chandelier is one of the main exhibits at Joana Vasconcelos’ “Netless” exhibition, in Lisbon.

If you’re unfamiliar with Joana Vasconcelos, she’s the artist behind the amazing stainless pot shoes installation that we featured a while back. “The Bride” is one of her most original artworks, made up of over 14,000 tampons, wire and cotton thread.

There’s nothing peculiar about Joana Vasconcelos’ chandelier, if seen from a distance, but as you approach you begin to make out the strange materials she used. Right now, the tampon chandelier is only soaking up the gazes of art lovers, and will continue to do so until the Belem Cultural Center exhibition ends, on May 18, 2010.

She also made a giant shoe ("Priscilla, 2007") out of stainless steel pots:

"Sofá Aspirina” a sofa made from aspirin blister-packs.

Wonderful. I'm sure it will come in handy at ballroom filled with bitchy women on the rag.

I am sorry my only thoughts are "could I dry a pool with that" and "fuck I would love to set this thing on fire".

Looks like a giant used condom...

I prefer the other pictures in this thread of stuff he/she has created. The orange thing is nicest I'd much rather have that.

Look at the guy taking a photo in the first picture of the tampon thing. Why is he standing like that?

So this woman was sitting on the toilet staring at a tampon and thought to herself: "Gee, wouldn't these make a great chandelier!" I mean, WTF??!!
