Name of object: Condom Corsage
Date of manufacture: April 2002
Collector's name: Sherwin Sully Tjia

I purchased this lovely inflatable for a mere two bucks at an Anti-Prom I attended in drag this past April thrown by a group of art students. As you can see, it blurs the line between dollar-store art, consumable, social commentary and public service message. Inside the condom itself are tiny white plastic doves surrounded by tinselly sprinkles. There were other colours available but blue matched my dress the best.
