What you are looking at, my friends, is art. Ok, to the unsophisticated and uncouth (like me) that might just be a whole bunch of [burned toasts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cuisinart-simplitouch-xl) artist David Reimondo lined up and manipulated to look like whatever he made the stuff look like. And its all cool. The tired cliche says art is in the eyes of the beholder (or is that beauty?) and if you are "beholding" this [toasted bread](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/croissant-toast) and calling it art...Then art it is!
