Window Installation
Sienna DeGovia, Los Angeles artist and food stylist, raised awareness of homelessness
this past Saturday by creating, over the course of six hours, a Skid Row street scene out of gingerbread and other edible materials. Thank you to the many who came by, several with canned goods that will be donated to a local shelter. The installation will remain in the window for a brief time. Home Sweet Homeless is part of the ongoing exhibition
Good Enough to Eat: The Fusion of Food and Craft which continues into 2013

| Assembled on a support of garbage bags, DeGovia painstakingly brought to view - and to thought - a scene of homelessness: grocery cart, cardboard box, newspaper, bottles, wrappers, a dog, rats, pigeons, graffiti and more. The artist's imagery rendered in edible sweets juxtaposes our notion of a homeless scene Striking food for thought. |
