Mosaic Artist Fills Potholes With Yummy Treats and Food Packaging

October 18, 2018 by Chris Durso

The last time that we checked in with mosaic artist Jim Bachor, he was filling potholes throughout Chicago with ice cream.

Over the past few years, Jim has continued his work of improving streets and communities with more ice cream mosaics, unmistakeable food packaging and other treats. Bachor has even taken his talents to the streets of cities across the U.S. and abroad.

Bachor’s shop has prints and original works available, even a piece that showcases and old-school Swanson TV Dinner. We assume that he did the dessert first.

Ice Cream Mosaics Are A Great Way To Decorate Potholes

May 11, 2015 by Chris Durso

As long as we’re still using streets, there will be tire-destroying potholes. Too bad, the means still used to fix large holes in the street results in unattractive patchworks.

Treats in the Streets is a fun project by Chicago-based mosaic artist, Jim Bachor. He pretties-up these unfortunate-looking road-fixes by installing ice cream-themed mosaics in them.

Most of the works can be found throughout Chicago. Check out Bachor’s Instagram to help keep track of the exact location of the ice cream mosaics. Just look out for potholes that don’t have ice cream in them.

Bacon Kevin Bacon

December 12, 2012 by Chris Durso

Mosaic artist Jason Mecier, who’s no stranger to using cured meats as a medium, has created his masterpiece with Kevin Bacon made from bacon.

Besides the obvious question of, “What took so long to think of this?” the next logical inquiry is “How awesome must Mecier’s apartment smell?”

Beef Jerky Barack Obama and Mitt Romney

August 23, 2012 by Chris Durso

Mosaic artist Jason Mecier, best known for his food mosaics of pop culture and mythical figures, has recently thrown his glue gun into the political ring. Created for a promotion for Jack Links, Barack Obameat & Meat Romney [nice!] are made entirely from beef jerky.

Now, we try never to get political here at Foodiggity. But even Romney’s dehydrated meat smile gives me the douche chills. Be sure to check out Mecier’s making-of video below.

The World’s Largest Coffee Bean Mural

June 29, 2012 by Chris Durso

Entitled Awakening, Russian artist and sculptor Arkady Kim recently revealed the world’s largest coffee bean mosaic. At around 30 square meters and using around 397 lbs of coffee beans, the highly caffeinated mural is on display at Gorky Central Park of Culture and Leisure in Moscow.

Passersby are encouraged to get up close to touch and smell the fresh roasted beans. But please, no licking the art. It’s on display until July 1.
