Technique: resin/ skittles bag
Size: 18x12x14.5 cm
Edition: 1/1, unique

At first glance, “We love Skittles” appears as a mere block of epoxy resin, unassuming and enigmatic. However, upon closer inspection, its true essence begins to unfold. Encased within the transparent resin lies a humble skittles bag, its familiar logo serving as a poignant symbol of mass consumption and corporate influence. Yet, juxtaposed against this emblem of commercialism is an unexpected element—a  ‘Oyster Rolex’ watch.

This juxtaposition serves as the crux of “We love Skittles” challenging viewers to confront the complexities of modern-day existence. The juxtaposition of the everyday skittles bag with the luxurious connotation of a Rolex watch prompts reflection on the intertwining forces of consumer culture and status symbolism. What may initially seem like a simple fusion of objects is, in fact, a profound meditation on the interplay between materialism, identity, and societal values.
