Piñata Cheese Grater


The second piñata of the set of London-inspired installation art.  In London, I was inspired by companies such as Confetti Systems, which has created installation piñata art in stores, for concerts, and more.  Their work inspired me to test out this medium.

This particular piece was inspired by a building, called the Cheese Grater. The city has great names for their buildings, but hearing them with a foreign ear can leave one thinking...'are we in a city...or a kitchen pantry?' (no rights to images of actual buildings).
 

Piñata Gherkin




The first piece in a set of piñatas inspired by installation art and buildings of London.  This pickle is inspired by the Gherkin building and meant to represent the communication confusion as an American in the UK, where chips mean fries and the Gherkin means a huge building, not a pickled cucumber.
