As the artist behind this clay sculpture, I sought to create a thought-provoking piece that challenges traditional notions of sushi and our relationship with the natural world. By depicting a serpent sliced into pieces and presented as sushi, I aimed to make a statement about the exploitation and consumption of living beings.
The intricate details of each slice of sushi and the serpent's coiled body were carefully crafted to create a visually striking and surreal piece of art. Using clay as the medium allowed me to add a tactile element to the sculpture, with the texture of the serpent's scales and the sushi's rice and seaweed clearly visible.
I chose a serpent as the subject matter for this sculpture to symbolize the danger and temptation often associated with these creatures. By presenting the serpent as sushi, I aimed to challenge the viewer's expectations and spark a critical reflection on the impact of human actions on the natural world.
Overall, this sculpture represents my ongoing exploration of the intersection between art and social commentary.
