Binge (2021)

A lollipop display that is made entirely out of sugar.
The viewer is invited to taste some of the sugar to realize that the sculpture is beer-flavoured.
How come?

This work plays upon the viewer’s endearing memories of childhood through the iconic, almost instantly recognisable sculptural shape. The memories fade and the viewer finds themselves in the present, where the taste of sugary, sticky, stale beer has coated their mouth. The sculpture evokes a bittersweet narrative of childhood and alcohol addiction.
