Made from ceramic with gold lustre, these Popcorn for the wall by Madeleine Child are a sweet tease. "The popcorn started after hassling with my kids about buying sugary popcorn. (We had always preferred cheesy tartrazine snacks and savoury flavours). After giving in I became fascinated with it’s fleshy gorgeousness and organic fecundity. Things with some inherent funniness like small explosions are a good starting point for making. I hoped for something of Fontana’s ‘earthquaked but motionless’, with some Rococo decadence."
