Shelf Life, installation, cream cake, dimensions variable, 2009-2010
This work begins with a cake with the words “Tomorrow Will Be Better” written on it. Using time-lapse photography, I captured the changes to the cake over time. The different ingredients in the cake and different toppings degrade at different rates and asks questions about the transformation of the city and the timelessness of these renovations.
