American Artist Artist Makes A Portrait Of Donald Trump From Peaches

This artwork of President Trump made with peaches was initially made on a whim. When artist Phil Hansen first conceived of the idea he thought it was silly but it also made him laugh. That mixture of feelings is what drove him to create the portrait.

As the artwork was coming together the question arose of what to do with the picture. Throwing it in the trash after completing it felt sudden and keeping it was impossible. Hansen then set up a live webcam to capture what will be its demise. Will it rot? Will it dry up and fizzle out? Either option felt like it may be a prediction of things to come. Only time will tell.

48×68 inches
40 cans of peaches
7 hours to create
