Chewing Gum Sculptures Make Your Room Smell Like Chewing Gum

If you’re like me, then you used to take chewed gum, stretch it out and make shapes with it. My favorite shape was the sphere. It was easy to make - all I had to do was roll the gum around in my hands, turning the pink tooth-molded gum into a brown ball. Then I would pop it back in my mouth (and it was more salty than sweet, at this point), chew, mold, and repeat. Maurizio Savini has found a slightly more sanitary way to make gum art. He took pre-chewed chewing gum and made it into beautiful, and wonderful smelling, art. It you ak me, this is crazy. If you can make art like this with gum, I wonder what other crazy things you can do with it; who knows, you may, someday, be able to chew it to draw flavor.
