While LA is a movie town, characters from the big screen have never been immortalized quite like this! Artist JASON MECIER has chosen some of his favorite icons from the silver screen, creating large-scale portraits made exclusively out of Red Vines® brand candy!
Yes, that’s right!
Every piece of art hanging on the walls of this LICORICE FLIX exhibition is an edible movie mosaic, comprised entirely of that favorite theatre snack. We invite you to come out and enjoy this celebration of Hollywood and all its popcorn stars, featuring odes to:
Harry Potter
Charlie Chaplin
Willy Wonka
Freddy Krueger
E.T.
Showgirls
Twin Peaks
…and others!
Drinks will be served!
Movies will be projected!
and…
We literally have a ton (yes, a metric ton) of Red Vines® candy to give away for all who join us!
You can get more details on Facebook or at the iam8bit site.
my grand mother migrated here from ireland when she was 15 and fell in love withe the black vines. she introduced them to me when i was about 5 and i have been a true love of the vines sence then. I can still remember when they came in boxes with wax paper. I come from a large family and did alot of babysitting and with my earnings i would purchase a box of them and hide them of course! anaways I just wanted to let you know that I’m still buyin them and enjoying still after all these years.
Thank you for sharing, Sheila. We love hearing from our lifelong Red Vines fans. One of the best things about a good candy is how it reminds us of our past and connects us to our loved ones.
Sincerely,
John
