Finger Lipstick, 2025
7 x 2 cm / plastic tube, silicone
A familiar cosmetic gesture is subtly altered through a minimal transformation. Instead of a lipstick bullet, a soft finger-like form emerges from the tube.

The act of applying lipstick becomes unexpectedly intimate. The gesture hovers between self-touch and the touch of another, creating a brief moment of hesitation.

The object exposes how a slight anthropomorphic shift can transform a routine action into an ambiguous tactile encounter.
