JELL-O Architecture Artworks

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

These Liz Hickok Creations are Spectacular Zero-Impact Edible Art

— February 2, 2011 — Eco
Liz Hickok's incredible JELL-O architecture art just might be the tastiest and most colorful artwork you've ever seen.

Made entirely from JELL-O, Liz Hickok's creations are small-scale replicas of famous landmarks and American cities that not only look awesome, but also dissolve without a trace after a certain period of time. By leaving no trace, her art makes a bold statement and then limits its carbon footprint merely to photos and memories.

Implications - Consumers are fascinated with food sculptures because they take familiar, delectable goods, and re-contextualize them in unexpected ways. Corporations looking to introduce new products to consumers should similarly integrate familiar elements into the physical design of a product.

2. Zero-impact Art - Artists like Liz Hickok are pioneering the concept of creating art that dissolves without leaving a trace, offering new opportunities for environmentally conscious art and installations.
3. Unexpected Physical Design - The integration of familiar elements into the physical design of products can offer a unique and memorable twist for consumers.
Industry Implications
1. Food and Beverage Industry - The food and beverage industry can explore the trend of food sculpture art to create unique and visually appealing products that offer new sensorial experiences to consumers.
2. Art and Design Industry - The art and design industry can capitalize on the trend of zero-impact art to create environmentally friendly installations, adding a new layer of impact and relevance to their works.
3. Consumer Product Development Industry - The consumer product development industry can innovate by integrating familiar elements, such as food, into the physical design of their products, to create memorable and engaging experiences for consumers.
