7 Necessities – Chastity Belt

7 Necessities – Chastity Belt

(limited edition of 3 + 1 A.P.)

nylon, silver, 22k gold‐plated, diamond, video player, 33x23x20cm


Chastity belts have conflicting connotations. Their primary purpose seemed to reside in preventing women to engage actively in sexual intercourse. However, some use them to create just the opposite impression. Noten plays with these meanings and asks who should be protected, the wearer or the spectator. Who would fall victim to this masterpiece of seduction? The abundantly decorated chastity belt contains many details, such as a valuable gem and a small video device that presents images of the sea.
