INJECT LOVE. Performance (urn and lipstick) and photograph (1/1) of the resulting action. Signed and justified by hand. Size: 13 x 34 x 23 cm (urn); 65 x 99 cm (photograph); 64 x 98 cm (photograph with frame). The artistic duo Inject Love (formed by Brusse and Hanse Cora) is a champion of the motto "You're not alive until you vibrate in love". The performance that we are now bidding for -so called because it not only consists of a set of lipsticks in a methacrylate urn, but also a photograph that shows the final result of the action carried out with these lipsticks- took place in the Casa Batlló. As the Batlló institution itself stated: "Through street art, sculptures, photographs and installations, Inject Love proposes to "converse" about love, confronting the experience of the artists with that of the spectators. An art that finds its place in public spaces as well as in galleries". The performance consisted of visitors to the Casa Batlló who decided to immerse themselves in the Inject Love installation, who could paint their lips and "kiss" the wall to leave them impregnated on Gaudí's white wall, as can be seen in the photograph accompanying the lot. The tandem is currently working in Ghent, Belgium, and Santander, Spain.
