Miss Bugs: Do No Harm, 2019. Mixed media, hand made resin Lolly. This item is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity, signed by the artist, a plaster display stand, and custom box as originally issued.

5.5 x 2.25 x .74 inches Lolly; 7.25 x 3.25 x 1.25 inches box.

Acquired from the artist; Private collection Boston.

Excellent condition, no notable flaws; some of the hinges and corners of the box are very softly worn. Please note due to each piece being cast and polished by hand in our studio, some lollies may have small imperfections.

The new popsicle editions feature the installation’s title, Do No Harm, emblazoned on the ‘stick’ (jesmonite marble plinth). Taken from the Hippocratic Oath sworn to by physicians, the ironic title hints at the potential wounds that social medical can inflict. Beneath the sweet, tasty exterior of beautiful imagery and mesmerizing videos lies the dangers of toxic social interaction with precious little real-world accountability including the viral spread of false information, and abusive, troll-like behavior.

Miss Bugs was founded in the early part of 2007, originally coming from a background in photography and graphics. Working in partnership, they developed fast, spontaneous working methods, cutting and pasting existing images; 'remixing and sampling classics' in art to make new pieces with their own mark.
