Oakland sculptor Scott Hove’s inedible (not that you’re tempted) sculptural cakes, complete with teeth, maws and fetishistic spikes. Sez he:
This body of work is a result of self-education, a lifelong interest in artificial food and objects, and an obsession with the relationship between the beautiful and the brutal. All beautiful things are equipped with a defense mechanism, to protect against the predations of those who seek to possess. The mechanizations of the predator also have a terrifying elegance. The two working together tell a very old story, and are the basis of many archetypes.

We were discussing the upcoming Fiscal Treaty recently and were worried about the number of people saying they didn’t understand the Treaty or what it was about. It worried us most that although we had read the Referendum Guide, we didn’t fully understand it ourselves. So after a bit of research, we put together this video that we hopee xplains what the Treaty is about.
Neither of us are Economics students, so it’s free of any technical jargon. The video is intended to be objective, neither supporting a yes or no vote. We used the Referendum Commission’s handbook as a guide line as our metric for this and it was completed in two days. The purpose of this video is to help inform people.
