Paris Hilton Autopsy - Bizarre New Sculpture
Daniel Edwards, a New York artist whose was previous creations include a sculpture of a pregnant and nude Britney Spears down on all fours, recently completed a piece entitled Paris Hilton Autopsy. Part of a public service campaign about the perils of drunk driving, it will be the centerpiece of the “Campaign to Rescue Women of Youth.”
The life-sized sculpture of Hilton depicts her as a nude corpse with a jeweled tiara on her head and her dog Tinkerbell lying across her shoulder. The actress/heiress also has a cell phone clutched in her hand.
The tiara on her head also serves as a reference to other high-profile women whose lives were ended or altered due to drunk driving, including Miss USA Tara Conner and Princess Diana.
To further drive home the message about the perils of drunk driving, the sculpture has an open abdominal cavity which allows the innards to be removed. Visitors will be encouraged to don gloves and reach inside the Simple Life star’s body as if performing an autopsy.
The display will be unveiled on May 11th at Capla Kesting Fine Art in Brooklyn’s Williamsburg neighborhood. According to gallery director David Kesting, the sculpture is designed to “counter the disturbingly glamorized trend of Hollywood’s girls-gone-wild.”
As you may remember, on March 29th, 2007, the LA City Attorney’s Office announced that Ms. Hilton has violated the terms of her DUI probation by driving with a suspended license. They went on to say that they want Hilton to serve at least 90 days in jail. This case is still ongoing, but you can bet on whether or not Paris does jail time by heading on over to Bodog.
Kesting wasn’t for sure if Hilton knew about the piece, but he stated that he “wouldn’t be surprised” if she were directly involved.
Daniel Edwards also created a sculpture entitled Monument to Pro-Life: The Birth of Sean Preston. The sculpture features a naked Britney Spears giving birth to her first son on a bearskin rug. In addition, he also produced Suri’s Bronzed Baby Poop, in honor of the offspring of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes.
