Modern Vices 31: Burger Box and Fries Sculpture

This is part of a series on modern vices; although most vices seem to be consistent throughout the ages :-) This is a burger box, together with fries/chips. The colours are intentionally bright, even garish or bilious. The tray is a symbol of our instant, isolated, fast food existence. When you eat off a tray, you know you aren’t at home with your family. You have queued at a bright serving station, manned by low-paid staff who produce production line food. You will sit on a plastic chair that is bolted to the floor, and your dining experience will take no more than ten minutes. Burgers and fries are the epitome of junk food. While many of us enjoy an occasional burger, it is ubiquitous; and the discarded wrappers litter the streets of some cities. This box is 3D printed and has clay fries. It is then mounted on to a cafeteria tray, and then on to the acrylic glass of a picture frame. Note that the final version my vary slightly. Each is produced and mounted by hand, which means no two are alike. This version is a bright green box on an orange tray. It is ready to hang; there is a metal hanger on the back of the frame. It will brighten your chosen room and be a conversation piece. The sculpture is unusual because the box and fries seem to be suspended - hanging in the air. They look as though they should have fallen off by now. They're defying gravity.
