by Artist: #MariusSperlich in Loc.: #Berlin Germany 2019 - Title: "Modern Drugs Series / Likes = Money" - #Art #Streetart #PhotoArt #Artist #Fotografie #Photography #Likes #Installation #Lips #APhotoLove

Photography. A color photo of an open female mouth with a "like" on the tongue. A close-up of a wide-open mouth with red make-up. On the tongue is a small piece of red paper with a hand symbol (a like) pointing upwards. The photo has rich colors and a high-gloss look.
Info: Berlin-based artist Marius Sperlich is known for his unique, extreme close-ups in combination with a variety of different materials. The artist calls it an installation and has made the price for this picture dependent on the likes on Instagram. 1 like = 1 dollar. Getting "likes" apparently triggers the same brain reaction as some drugs. The photo was meant to elicit reactions and it did. People commented and liked in a variety of ways. (At Art Basel Miami, the virtual number of likes was shown in parallel on a display below the picture. 109,814, but the number was unimportant and was not mentioned on Instagram at the time).
Model: Kim Decker
Make-up artist: Joanna Bacas.
