The Jell-O Mold Competition's fantastic catch phrase 'Keep Calm and Wobble On' is almost better than the incredible Jell-O creations themselves.
In memory of designer Tobias Wong, the competition brought out some interesting and creative uses for the silly food. Dresses, fake cups, fake beers and a colorful piano are just some of my favorites. The Jell-O Mold Competition has an awesome Flickr pool with images of the entries and guests in this jiggling competition.
What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Sculpture Innovation
- Exploration of new materials and techniques in creating innovative sculptures, potentially including the use of food products like Jell-O.
- Upcycling in Design
- Transforming everyday materials into art and design, similar to repurposing Jell-O into sculptural pieces.
- Interactive Art Competitions
- Involving the public in creative challenges that break traditional art contest barriers, such as using a food item like Jell-O as a medium.
Sectors Adopting This
- Food and Beverage
- Exploring creative ways to incorporate food items into artistic design and promotion.
- Art and Design
- Embracing unconventional materials and participative challenges to create an interactive and engaging experience for viewers and artists.
