Peanut | Butter
When mundane objects are displayed in a gallery or museum their status becomes instantly elevated; this is the “vitrine effect” and it also works with 2-D images. Peanuts and butter qualify as mundane things; maybe they’re elevated by appearing in this artwork. What I find interesting is the design, and the juxtaposition of a photographic image and a crude drawing.
