From 2022 to 2023, the artist collected lipsticks from 200 women, which they did not wear while wearing the mask. Nicole Hassler created a gigantic work
of art featuring 200 lipsticks paintings with their first names.
The work is entitled « Art lovers' lipsticks », 2022-2023 and a book has been edited.
« Nicole Hassler’s interest in (or preoccupation with?) the recycling of beauty products is central to her creative process. Art Lovers’ Lipsticks is a fundamental affirmation of this.»
