I sure hope everyone had a super weekend!!!
With such sad and sorrowful news coming in all the time from the pandemic, wouldn't it be nice to have a more delicious death? One of my favorite artist Daniela Edburg did this exhibit several years ago, titled Drop Dead Gorgeous, a series that explores excess and the fine line between beauty and madness, and both mocks and satisfies our cravings. She may also get you to think twice before eating that whole package of special treats or enjoy a object to much. Daniela Edburg is a Mexican artist born in Texas. Her work is photographic fictions. The main focus of her work is the human connection with the natural through the artificial. I love me some quirky.

Okay Miss Moorecock is correct... you're getting a little too dark! Although death by cotton candy and M&Ms... what a way to go!
ReplyDeleteI love these. The Birds one especially.
ReplyDeleteI like the dark.
Wow, with the exception of yarn, Slim Fast and Nutella, I've died all of these deaths! Death by Oreos was the best, followed by gummies :) I don't find these dark at all. I like 'em. Thanks for the picture of you in my head. Death by gin *snicker*.
ReplyDeleteOh Deedles....Death my Snickers !?!?!?
DeleteNow you're talkin' M.E.! Yum! Oooh, even better, dark chocolate covered cherries! I think we may be missing the point of this fabulous artwork.
DeleteDeath my anything chocolate...how can we go wrong. So glad to see your back Duchess Deedles!!!
DeleteThank you Lady Agnes. Happy to be alive!
DeleteI can make chocolate covered cherries you know......
DeleteOooh, Mads! Do you make the kind with the clear filling? That's my favorite of all time! You are so damn talented! Now I want candy.
DeleteMilk chocolate...with maraschino cherry
DeleteSome carry juice with a tad of fondue. Melt right on the tongue tootes.
Not death by coffee!!!!!!!

Oh these are marvelous!
ReplyDeleteIt reminds me of a line from a movie: "Trudy, it could kill you!"
"Yes, but isn't it worth it?"
Take the picture! It could be your xmas card this year. And what a lovely way to be remembered... Hendrick's Hijinks! This is a marvelous collection. I simply want more... like death by disney... death by barbie... death by pilates. Let's all have a fabulous week!
ReplyDeleteLets get on that!!!!!!

ReplyDeleteIm with Deedles. You know my death would be all these except death by Slim Fast. You've seen my big ass.
ReplyDeleteDeath by gin? I thought yours would have been death by cock surely.
ReplyDeleteShe may over indulge on cock, but would never overdose on cock!!!!!!!!
DeleteI can see you've been hanging with certain people around here.
DeleteBetween yesterday post and now this I already like where were going this week. Art!! My death would have to be Death by...salt water taffy.
ReplyDeleteI was waiting for "Death by gin!!!!"
ReplyDeleteWhat happened?😂
Didn't kick the bucket yet dear...i must be immune to the stuff....

ReplyDeleteDeath by Nutella and death by Oreos!
Love the concept and the execution. That cotton candy nightmare is fantastic.
Now, darling, about that Gin...

About the gin....have another?
DeleteOh my goodness ! I needed that laugh ! Baby is doing a whole lot with these ! LOL
ReplyDeleteOh Mistress...arent these fabulous? The cotton candy one is stunning. William loves cotton candy. Ill have to share these when's he's back from errands. My would be Death by Hot Fudge Sundae!
ReplyDeleteThese are brilliantly hilarious and appeal to my moribund soul. I love the cotton candy - - and Whistler's Mother death by Oreos.
ReplyDeleteAND the Lifesavers!!!
I haven't had a Lifesavers in ages!
DeleteThese are great! I think my fave is Death by Oreos -- but what a way to go!
ReplyDeleteMaddie, your death by didn't surprise me in the slightest. I love the coffee and the nutella. I think mine would have to be death by cupcakes.
ReplyDeleteI can identify with the knitting yarn one. what a spectacular art piece!
ReplyDeleteOh i love these!!!!! Dark but fun i do believe mine would be Death by Licorice.
ReplyDeleteI've come close to Death by Nutella. The spoon kept going back into the jar, and I had to lick it off to hide the evidence. IT WASN'T ME IT WAS THE NUTELLA
ReplyDeleteIt's funny how our spoons just keep digging back in delicious substances isn't it?
DeleteI Love her Work! Thanks for Sharing it. The Young Prince would be Death by Nutella and The Man would be Death by Oreos. My Vice isn't up there and I'm not telling. *Winks*
ReplyDeleteDid somebody mention CAKE?
ReplyDeleteOn no. That cake would be rather nutty.
DeleteDeath by pizza, yep what a way to go. Deep dish, obviously. And no comments from the east coast peanut gallery.
ReplyDeleteEast Coast Penis Gallery? OH PEANUTS....silly me.
DeleteThose were fantastic! Thanks, sweetpea, for the smiles today! xoxo
ReplyDeleteThose banana peels have nothing over Hitchcocks The Birds!
ReplyDeleteWho would complain over a death of sweet clouds of sugary fluffiness and funnels?
ReplyDeleteBrilliant brillant!!! Cotton Candy and and Oreos would be the way to go.
ReplyDeleteDeath by Nutella is quite a possibly for me...these are hilarious.
ReplyDeleteBig Gaffaw/snorty laugh!!! Thank you! Love the first one especially - those banana skins are soooo silly they make me giggle! Hope it picks up for you sweetie!
ReplyDeleteOh sweetener for sure. If only I laid my sweetener out like that...I bet that would get me some look.
ReplyDeleteHave you seen the joke making the rounds, "When the inevitable happens and I choke to death on gummy bears, please just shorten it and say, I was was killed by bears."
ReplyDeleteDeath by Organization? I'd be locked NEATLY in an airtight container stacked under 50,000 other airtight containers. These are brilliant (really creepy, but brilliant).
ReplyDeleteThat a good one too!!!!! If not gin with me, it could be my OCD.
DeleteThat death by coffee is definitely me.
