Diner Delight was a piece I made for my first solo show, Comfy Foods. It consists of a cheeseburger ottoman with french fry and ketchup throw pillows. The cheeseburger ottoman is very sturdy and can actually be sat on. It’s also hollow inside for storage. The entire piece was all handmade by me, even the internal ottoman structure and the ketchup mount. I chose to show the ketchup in the middle of being squeezed onto the fries for dramatic effect. I even shaped the bottle to make it more narrow in the middle, as if an invisible hand is squeezing the ketchup onto the fries. I try to make a statement with my pieces and blur the line between fine art and craft.
