Kate Moss immortalized in gold
British super model Kate Moss has been a muse to many. But for one artist she’s a definition of dream. On August 28th solid gold sculpture of Kate was unveiled in London. Marc Quinn has created second statue of Moss and this time its gold.
Just recently Kate has been in the Interview magazine posing nude driving you all out there crazy craving for her. Now she is made in gold and will be presented and available for you to see in the British Museum in London starting from October, 4. The statue, entitled Siren, has been billed as the largest gold statue built since ancient Egypt and will be part of a group of major sculptures by leading British artists to go on display very soon.
Created by Marc Quinn, whose previous masterworks include the marble sculpture Alison Lapper Pregnant, which appeared on a plinth in London’s Trafalgar Square.
The exhibition is a fitting setting for the 50kg statue of Pete Doherty’s ex, as she is “interacting with the great Greek beauties that surround it.”

Fifty kg sculpture huh? That’s like 110 lbs… isn’t that how much Kate weighs?
Literally worth her weight in gold… Now I see why she was complaining last week that her modeling lifestyle has made her so thin!
