Cakes, Candy and Sweets Oh No! The average American consumes an astounding 2-3 pounds of sugar a week as stated in the health statistics per the last five years. Everybody ha s certain relationship an idea about sweets. Whether an eating disorder, diabetes, a sweet tooth, or comfort food, itis evident that sweets may cause serious health conditions. I am interested in creating a tension and making apparent the excess of such foods and mass production. Oversized and fashioned entirely of plaster and pigment, Candy Necklace not only appears and smells edible but also becomes interactive and playful.
Madonna graduated from The University of Alberta with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in 2011.
