Satirical Art “Food for Thought” Offers Fun, Insatiable and Biting Commentary on Politics, Celebrity, and Contemporary Culture
NEW YORK, October 10, 2024 (CarryOnHarry.com)
– Is it Fine Art, or is it a snack? Artist Robbi Firestone of SF LLC tantalizes art lovers and provokes critics with her sculptural portraitof the former Cheeto-in-Chief, a 4-foot-tall portrait of Donald Trump sculpted entirely from Cheetos.
Firestone chose Flamin’ Hot and Crunchy Cheetos as her artistic medium to symbolize America’s insatiable appetite for consuming politics and celebrity culture in bite-sized pieces. Food for Thought is a cheeky series critiquing contemporary, American culture through a humorous, poignant lens.
Firestone invites the public to preview Trump’s Cheeto portrait as part of High Line Open Studios; October 12-13 from 12-6 p.m. at the West Chelsea Arts Building: 526 West 26th Street, #302, NYC, NY 10001.
By combining satire and pop culture, Firestone transforms iconic figures into larger-than-life Cheeto sculptures to spark laughter and conversation. Upcoming works include icons like Snoop Dogg, Eva Longoria (Producer of Flamin’ Hot), and others.
“My Cheeto series goes beyond the figures themselves,” says Firestone. “It explores our insatiable appetite and consumption of politics and celebrity culture—and how these crazy personalities consume us. I aimed to create something boldly relevant. Cheetos are omnipresent in American life, like these people. They symbolize our obsession with snack-able, quick digestible media—whether it’s politics, fame, or entertainment. The technically impossible medium mirrors message: Cheetos highlight our tendency for overconsumption, painting a portrait of a society in conflict with itself.”
The Food for Thought series includes Eat His Words, featuring Cheetos sculptures of Trump’s mouth phonemes to emphasize his exaggerated facial expressions, Say Cheese!, and Sign of the Times? to underscore the intersection of politics and commercialism.
Firestone is a mid-career artist whose work delves into ideas, inquiries, and unusual technical skill while exploring materiality. Rich in symbolism, she often plays with double and triple entendres that challenge the viewer to uncover layered meanings. Firestone’s artistic journey transitions constantly through both traditional and digital mediums. Her hunger to adapt and innovate invites viewers into a dialogue about the cultural and social symbols that shape our world.
