The Candy Wrappers Etc. art series is a giant nostalgic trip for lovers of all things sweet. Except that most people would probably prefer that the candy wrappers were still intact because that would mean big fat pieces of candy itself. From Double Bubble to Tootsie Rolls and Lifesavers, the Candy Wrappers Etc. series embraces a bunch of retro candies in a way that turns them into the works of art many have already known they were in their hearts.
A sequel to his currency series, Candy Wrappers Etc. was created by Paul Rousso, an artist based in North Carolina. He writes, "I endeavor to illuminate the imagined, effervescent edges of our all but invisible lives through the flat, two-dimensional subject matter that is all around us."
