Jason Kronenwald’s Chewing Gum Portraits

Dec 4, 2010 2 comments

Jason Kronenwald, an MFA graduate from Queens University in Kingston, Ontario, creates fascinating portraits of celebrities out of chewed pieces of bubblegum – an art which he has been perfecting since 1996. Jason smoothes chewed gum over plywood, creating realistic skin tones and hair color, composing his palette from the multitude of different flavors and colors chewed together. Kronenwald has a dedicated team of chewers and prefers the texture of Trident. However, he does not chew gum himself unless he must.

    With some people you can piss on their shoe and get away with calling it 'art'. To each his own.
