Some survey during World War II is said to have revealed that the ‘popsicle’ was universally acknowledged as a heartfelt
symbol of Americana by soldiers in the Allied Expeditionary Forces.
This is a double install, and offers many great opportunities for creative lighting, owing to their highly reflective surfaces.
Luscious, inviting and sensuous. What more can you desire from a sculpture than to be invited to suckle upon it?
