About this artwork
In her work, Mona Hatoum often uses everyday objects that are transformed into strange and surreal sculptures. In both T42 and T42 (gold), Hatoum has subverted the basic form of a white china teacup by doubling it. The resulting object suggests something highly intimate, which, like The Kiss of Brancusi, depicts two forms so close they have merged together.
