5 × 7 cm
Temporary tattoos

 

Mimomimomimodamour is a collection of performative love words, written using the Domimomimomimodamour writing system. By playing with the support, dissemination, and writing of these love words, Mimomimomimodamour explores the performativity of language through strategies of diffusion.

Mimomimomimodamour #4 is presented in the form of temporary tattoos. The words are borrowed from letters between Napoleon Bonaparte and Joséphine de Beauharnais, as well as from temporary tattoo using instructions. Visitors are invited to wear the words on their own skins.
