Caress for instant gratification bis
Door Christophe Muylaert, 2025
40cm x 50cm
Epoxy resin with embedded artificial pubic hair, wooden base with integrated LED lighting, black plinth with inscription “Caress for instant gratification.” The lighting transforms the encapsulated hair mass into a relic — a bodily trace suspended between sanctity and banality. The resin’s glow both seduces and distances: intimacy becomes sublime, eroticism becomes sterile. The work reflects on our longing to preserve closeness, to hold on to warmth in a cold world. Yet the touch never arrives. The title refers ironically to the digital and emotional culture of instant satisfaction, where intimacy is reduced to image, object, and memory.
