Pin-Up Memory Art


If you were a child of the 80s, you'll remember those fun pin art toys where you could make an impression of yourself. Be a Pin Up is a sweet installation from designer Lulu Guinness who takes it one step farther.


For Clerkenwell Design Week, Guinness created her very first pin up impression, even accessorizing her finished piece with a Lipstick Red Lips Clutch! This giant frame of pins is situated in front of St. John’s Gate, the iconic London landmark. It lets the public create full sized body portraits using the 6,000 chrome capped aluminum pins. Do we dare ask - What would your pin-up pose be?
