Butter Mint

Since Atlantic City is the birthplace of the saltwater taffy, I decided to incorporate the most familiar color that comes to mind for me when I think about saltwater taffys stemming back to when I was a child which is the teal green colored candies. I used three different hues of this color to create the composition in the center of my installation. The outside sculptural border I chose to use the color white inspired by sea foam which was left over in David Bradley’s store on the boardwalk that was left soaking into taffys on the floor caused by a flood that was sold to a child as a joke and created the very first saltwater taffy.
