IN VOLUPTAS MORS

In Voluptas Mors

Interpretation, freely adapted from Dalí
Location: Atelier Eido, 2019

The model for this work was the photograph “In Voluptas Mors (“Voluptuous/Desirable Death”) by Salvador Dalí and the photographer Philippe Halsman. The picture shows Dalí next to a large skull composed of seven naked women. At the time, it took three hours to “position” the models in a way that made the optical illusion look perfect.

New interpretation of a traditional craftsmanship.
