the little lies we tell ourselves
to make it through the day.
a personal collection of small things
which inspire me to remain alive in a cruel world.
works of art and artifice; little lies.

The kiss of death.
This astonishing sculpture forms part of Barcelona’s Poblenou Cemetery. The Kiss of Death (El Petó de la Mort in Catalan and El beso de la muerte in Spanish) dates back to 1930. A winged skeleton bestows a kiss on the lips of a handsome young man: is it ecstasy on his face or resignation? Little wonder the sculpture elicits strong and varying responses from whoever gazes upon it.
See also, the statue’s wikipedia entry.
Happy Hallowe’en, y’all.
