Playing with food

When I think back to my childhood, I remember birthday parties being of great importance. There are certain items of food that I associate with childhood birthday parties such as jelly and ice cream, cocktail sausages and cheese and pineapple on cocktail sticks that were sticking out of an orange covered in foil to resemble a hedgehog. Party rings also take me back to childhood birthday parties (not that I even liked them!)

My work often resembles sweeties or looks like it is edible. Today I started playing with placing such food items amongst my work and other materials in the studio.
