Cubed Carrots + Kernels of Corn
1978
Sandy Skoglund's meticulously constructed tableau immerses viewers in a surreal domestic landscape populated by repeated, uniform fragments of vegetables — cubed carrots and kernels of corn — scattered with obsessive abundance across figures and surfaces. Skoglund's signature approach transforms everyday food into an uncanny, dreamlike environment that blurs the boundary between the ordinary and the absurd. The work invites contemplation of consumer culture, excess, and the strange beauty found in repetition and artificial color.
