I had the pleasure of Swiss painter,Olivier Mosset, visit my studio at Hunter to view the installation of the “Monochrome R-40” mound , in which is comprised of entirely XXtra Hot Cheetos, and “Eternal Flam(Ing Hot Cheetos)”, a video component of a burning Hot cheeto infinitely burning. Mosset is mostly known for his monochromatic painting. As I further investigate the artificial food coloring Red 40, our discourse on the meditative act on looking at one thing at a time moved me deeply. This would be the first time I would install this work without the gold floor as a gesture towards the monochrome. -- source link
