Italian artist Maurizio Savini, creates amazing sculptures from regular pink chewing gum.
The synthetic fleshliness of the pink color, the obsessive square shape of the product unwrapped and ready to be shred to pieces by the power of the tongue, all compete in crashing on the senses. Applying all this to the power and energy of the Sculpture and its history causes a short circuit having the capacity of turning the ludic into stately and vice versa.
The strict minimalism of parallelepiped is subverted by the uniform coating with many bars of chewing-gum completely cover it, rendering chewable to desire, soft and provoking to forbidden touch, what was abstract and distant.

Yet another artist that uses unusual material to create some form of art. I wonder what the next artist will use? I propose fish carcass to neutralize all that sugary fragrance.
