Description

"Clean red blood cells gush from a vein to meet the deadly beauty of breast cancer"

Three woman Fifi knows have been diagnosed with breast cancer. A battle to keep fatigue and anaemia at bay; red blood cells are knocked back by the treatment. Photos of the cancer cells reveal them to be like delicate frilled bouquets. The question posed by Fifi through this incredible piece of art being "Beauty Disguising the Beast?"

100% of the proceeds from this auction will be donated to The New Zealand Breast Cancer foundation.

SO what would you do with this piece? Well the cell, the frilled bouquet is a detachable artwork and would make a stunning solo piece for display, or donate the entire garment to a high school or tertiary college for art and textile students to study. Display it at your workplace or deconstruct into single blood cells and sell them as mini art pieces for a fundraiser. Fifi is happy to guide you on the possibilities!'

Along with an exclusive exhibition of WOW Bizarre Bras, The Roxy is holding a public auction of WOW entry Vena Immaculata, and offering the public a chance to meet one of WOW’s talented artists FiFi Colston; and take part in a Bizzare Bra workshop.

Fifi is a veteran of Wearable Arts; a finalist and award winner since 1995 with 19 entries in show. Her work has been exhibited many times in Nelson’s World of Wearable Art Museum and two of her pieces are currently touring New Zealand in the WOW ‘Off The Wall’ Exhibition.

This is an amazing piece of art, with all of the proceeds going to the most deserving of charities. Get behind a great cause and start bidding!
