'Kiss & Tell'

  • Laura Magro

I received 36 letters which I used for a performance piece in a public space, in which, having put them in pastel pink envelopes, I proceeded to kiss each one of them leaving a lipstick stain. In this process I applied lipstick on myself by using a hand mirror, and sang to old Cuban love songs. I positioned the kissed letters in a circle around me, and strangers coming by were free to grab a letter and sit around to read it.
