Sculptures > Candy Memorials
2018; acrylic on plaster and wood;
each approx. 1.5 x 4 x 4 inches
These works are composed of painted plaster casts of the
receptacles in discarded candy-box trays, mounted on wood blocks.
The casts of the spaces that once held candies become
physical remembrances of indulgent experiences.
Painted and mounted, they are transformed into
sober talismans, with forms that resemble ceremonial architecture,
such as burial mounds and tombs of ancient civilizations.
