Artist Rachelle Beaudoin created this art performance chastity belt that shocks people when they touch it (but doesn’t shock her while wearing it). She used an off-the-shelf “shock your friends” gag toy circuits and extended the pertinent electrical leads using embroidered conductive thread on a vintage girdle. It was inspired by the film “That Obscure Object of Desire,” by Luis Bunuel. Thanks, Jeanne!
