Kim Kardashian baby bump has been preserved for posterity in nude fertility statue. Kim Kardashian’s baby bump’s due date is a month away, but Kim Kardashian’s baby bump will last forever.

Kim Kardashian’s baby bump will be preserved forever in a nude life-size statue that was uncovered in Los Angeles. Kim Kardashian’s pregnant body was sculpted by celebrity artist Daniel Edwards. The sculpture forever captures the 32-year-old million reality star without arms, but with enormous breasts and belly.

In a statement, publicist Cory Allen encouraged visitors to rub the stomach “for good luck and success.”

Daniel Edwards said that he designed the everlasting monument in response to the criticism Kardashian has received since becoming pregnant. In a release, Edwards said, “I was inspired by the beauty of Kim Kardashian and felt quite put-off by the media’s criticism of her weight gain during pregnancy. Such criticism should be off limits.

Edwards told Los Angeles Magazine, “People tend to look at the parts, like the creases in her armpits, or how she wore a dress that makes her look like a killer whale. I’m stripping it of the details people get stuck on, so they can see the beauty.“

Edwards' exhibit opened Wednesday at the LAB ART Gallery in Los Angeles. Other works in the exhibit include a bronze statue of Kim and Kanye’s child in utero “swirl design pattern” shaved in the baby’s hair and a bronze statuette of Kate Middleton and Prince William’s royal baby, “slumbering peacefully in the crown Queen Elizabeth wore as a princess.”

Edwards courted controversy before. In 2006, he sculpted a life-sized nude of Britney Spears giving birth to her son Sean Preston. He also sculpted an image of Angelina Jolie breast-feeding. Cory Allen said “We live in a media-absorbed culture where anyone can access and share a celebrity’s most intimate moments. Daniel visually captures that intimacy.”
