From a reflection on the tradition of marriage, as well as its association with concepts such as women's intimacy and virginity, Joana Vasconcelos created The Bride in 2005. The format is that of a conventional chandelier whose crystal pendants have been replaced by approximately 14,000 OB tampons provided by Johnson & Johnson. The video shows the assembly of the piece for an exhibition at the Gulbenkian in Lisbon (one of my favourite art museums).
