Real Neon Boobs

I designed the piece and worked with a neon fabricated in Los Angeles to complete the work. I am a fan of neon work, Bruce Nauman etc. I also spent time in biker bars in my 20’s riding around on a motorcycle with my then boyfriend and though I appreciated the neon breasts I found them to be lacking in reality. I finally made this piece after I became a mother, who nursed and had real boobs. The fabricated specializes in neon signs but was willing to work with me, Sketch Etch Laser Designs Pty. Ltd.
