The skull has stood for mortality in art for centuries, from vanitas paintings to street culture. The Skull Kettlebell sets it on the round weight in glossy pop colours such as hot pink, so the memento mori becomes a pop icon. The work sets the cult of strength and youth against the plain fact that the body ends. It belongs to The Weights of Ego.
