Talk about having a sweet tooth! 32 year old, Orlando, Florida based artist, Cristiam Ramos makes his art using a different material than most artists. Artists use common materials like paint or clay, maybe metals, but very few, maybe even only one, use candy.
Cristiam does exactly that. He's been making portraits of famous people using sweets, and now he's made this life-size motorcycle totally out of candy:
Using anything you can find in your local grocery shop; M&Ms, bubble gum, liquorice, Gummy Bears, you name it. If you can eat it, if it's sweet, you'll probably find it on the motorcycle.
20,000 candy pieces went into this motorcycle. That's a lot of calories. His celebrity portraits made out of candy sell for up to $18,000 per pop (pun intended). So God knows how much this work of art will fetch.
Interesting concept for an art motorcycle. My only thought is what will be motorcycle look like if there's heat wave and the airco conked out?
Isn't this a double whammy? Sweets and motorcycle, two of my favorite things...
