A giant bag of “Potato Chips” merges the mundane with the monumental. The bag’s slightly crumpled form, as if mid-motion, adds a sense of realism and dynamic movement. The lightweight appearance of the 3D-printed potato chips contrasts sharply with the heavy, solid bag carved in marble, highlighting the juxtaposition between traditional sculpture and contemporary fabrication methods as well as a sense of past (nostalgia) and present/future.
