Lollipop Art

This popped up in our Google Alerts the other day and it’s too cool not to share. A Brooklyn-based artist uses ring-shaped lollipops in many bright colors as her medium. She nails them to a vertical surface in a particular shape – usually spelling out a phrase, from what I can tell – and their melting drippings leave trails down to the floor.

I’m unclear on how she triggers them to melt, exactly. Are they partially pre-sucked before being nailed to the wall? Does she spray them with a mist of water?

Anyway, PRETTY. Check it out!
