Wine Gum 6 Vessel by Casper Johs

About the Item

Wine Gum 6 Vessel by Casper Johs Dimensions: Ø 38 x H 26 cm. Materials: Wine gum and resin. The vivid and colorful universe was the start of an in-depth investigation of the possibilities within candy. Here everything is possible. A car can taste like berries or a burger can be a sweet treat. Through a laboratory-like approach of trial and error, a technique was developed to use wine gums as a sculpting material encapsulating the colors and textures of the seductive candy into vessels. Like oversized pieces of candy, you have to resist the urge to put them in your mouth. Meticulously made by hand each vessel is unique. The strong, synthetic colors and textures derived from the wine gums add a glass-like expression and the organic hand-sculpted shapes provide a soft counterplay. The oversized proportions add a child-like feeling to the vessels as a neotonic nod to the imaginative inspiration though not depriving the luxurious elegance and exclusive feeling of the pieces. A medium vessel consists of approximately 300 pieces of candy. Each piece is melted into individual sheets which are coated with resin and applied to a mold in multiple layers. When the resin is dry the vessel is removed from the mold and the edge is finished by folding additional candy sheets along the edge. A finishing layer of resin is applied. It can contain water and does not biodegrade.
