Does wandering around downtown Brooklyn make you think of waffles? Well, now it does. Artist Martha Friedman, a sculptor obsessed with recreating everyday objects like, yes, food, has placed a seven-foot tall waffle made of foam, resin and metal on the still-green lawns of MetroTech Commons (Curbed has this one, too).

I never understood this kind of art. I would rather see something abstract than food and cutlery.
considering who are next president will be… it fits.

“My writings are a work of art????”
Not exactly. Perhaps you missed the part in the quote pertaining to the masses taking an interest in it…
