Ever seen a candy hat? If you have ever thought that candy would look fantastic on a hat then you're in luck! Will Cotton has created some beautifully scrumptious head-worn sculptures that look just like candy hats.
Born in the United States, artist Will Cotton is a painter, illustrator and sculptor. His work was shown at the Mary Boone Gallery in New York.
Implications - The tasty-looking headgear is colored in pink and white and features what looks like giant marshmallows and colorful hard candies placed on top of the models' heads. It's probable that you would never see anyone walking down the street with candy on their head, but it definitely is a neat art concept!
