From Boris Hoppek's Tokyo exhibit "Ever"
The Life Studio finally found a model who
could sustain this pose long enough
to take a number of photo's.
Then she would unfurl,
stretch and stealthily move about,
limbering up.
Afterwards she slathered herself
and her hair-in a gel substance.
Re-established her pose -exactly-
before they dowsed her in a spray
coating of Plastic.
It was thin enough to dry in 5 minutes.
It was pliable enough
to come off in one whole piece.
"The money they paid me"
She told the reporter after cleaning up
"Included a bonus for all the pulling of my hair!"

I hope it was a very large bonus! I thought of the model cleaning up too....almost put her in the bath but refrained.
Nice one!
the layer of plastic is a bit creepy actually..not sure how much money that would take for me...
That experience would not be pleasant at all...
I was wondering this very thing...how she could maintain that position...
Very ingenious was to hold the pose. Well expressed.
Hairspray with a vengeance! LOL
You gotta hand it to her to be able to hold that pose for a while! :-)
poetic and beautiful.
Thanks for visiting the Trellis household yesterday - there's and added giggle on that post now... LOL You might enjoy a second look?
Your Mag is brilliant, by the way. :)
Nice - and comical too! I love that notion of the plastic that comes off in one piece. I wonder what became of it?
Very creative take on the prompt!
huu..the plastic spray coating gave me shivers..very creative take on the prompt...a bit creepy though..smiles
Yikes! I had not even thought about what might be holding her in place. I wonder what the EPA and the AMA would say about the dangers of that spray coating. :)
My daughter is seriously studying art and she draws nude models in unique poses. I often wonder HOW they hold onto the poses but she says some of the sketches are only minutes long - but they are NOT doused in plastic spray... ha.
A perfect little spin on the prompt. They'd be all day pulling and tugging at my thick, headfull!!
Izzy...
You have a fantastic writing mind!
