Artist Mocks Celebrity Obsession With Suri Cruise Stool Sculpture

The sculptor behind Britney Spears' controversial pregnancy statue is set to shock again with his own take on the first stool squeezed out by Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes' reclusive daughter Suri. Daniel Edwards' bronze sculpture, entitled "Suri's Bronzed Baby Poop," went on display at the Capla Kesting Fine Art gallery in New York yesterday.
The piece is inspired by baby Suri's first movement and will be sold to the highest bidder at an eBay internet auction when the exhibition ends in late September. Edwards stunned the art world earlier this year with his homage to Spears' labor, "Monument To Pro-Life: The Birth Of Sean Preston." That piece featured a stone Spears on all fours on a bear skin rug, ready to
give birth to her first son.
The Suri stool isn't for real but gallery officials insist Edwards' latest creation is more than a publicity stunt. In a statement, they write: "It's partially a statement on modern media that celebrity poop has more entertainment value than health, famine or other critical issues facing society and governments today."
