Bon Bon - American flag candy
2011
A vibrant and playful sculpture by Laurence Jenkell, this work transforms the iconic American flag into a shimmering, oversized candy wrapper, rendered in polyester and glitter paint on an aluminium base. Part of Jenkell's celebrated "Wrapping" series, the piece merges pop art sensibility with a sense of festive indulgence, inviting viewers to reconsider national symbols through a lighthearted and whimsical lens. The sparkling surface and bold patriotic colors create a striking visual dialogue between consumer culture and collective identity.
