Bread Heads
I made a bunch of bread heads out of cheap, crappy white flour from the supermarket. There are about 120 of them, although in future installations, I’d like to have many many more. This was a part of the Food Art Show a few days before Thanksgiving at a friend’s house in the Hampden neighborhood of Baltimore. I didn’t want to use moulds, as other people who have done similar pieces have, because I wanted to really sculpt the dough and explore its properties when using it like clay.

This little Greenwich Village shop is a blast from the past for me. From 1985 to 1993, I lived in West London and have always missed British candy and special foods. Low and behold, Myers of Keswick has it all. Weetabix cereal, Quality Street candy, Scotch Eggs, PG Tips tea! It’s absolutely amazing. But it’s not all just imports, they make fresh food everyday that you wouldn’t find anywhere else.

The latest project of former punk rock drummer Andreas Asingh from Copenhagen, I literally stumbled across Small through my participation at the By:Larm music conference in Oslo. As one of the many up-and-coming bands in Denmark, their sound is a cross between M83, Remote, and Giorgio Moroder; captivating and adventurous, and full of strong melodies.
