ELECTION EGGPLANTS & MORE

At long last, I have completed a batch of 100 Stray Eggplants and shipped them off to Art*o*mat. This is my 10th edition of eggplants—a project that began back in 2004. I have now created in excess of 900 eggplant sculptures, no two with the same quote.

Since we've just been through a presidential election that dominated the media and obsessed most of us for nearly 2 years, I decided to design 50 special edition "election plants" with quotes from the historic election including campaign slogans, media sound bytes, memorable Saturday Night Live lines from election skits and so forth. Below is a slideshow with a few of them.

If you are the host of an Art*o*mat machine, these unique eggplants will soon be available so be sure to request them.

If you'd like to buy an eggplant, visit the Gentry Joint Store.  There are a few in stock at the moment.
