description: 
This cultural stigma around body size allows space for this absurd notion that when a diet doesn�t work, either immediately or in the long term, the dieter is somehow at fault instead the product�s failure to fulfill its promise. It cultivates a huge client base of repeat customers coming back to buy the same failed product again and again, blaming their own perceived lack of control or that single potato chip eaten in a three-month span before the weight stopped coming off for the failure instead of the product (Taylor). If you bought a coffee pot and it stopped working after a month, what would you do? I would certainly not blame myself for the coffee pot�s malfunction, nor for the company�s failure to deliver a product that lives up to the promise of functionality and longevity I paid for. I would send it back and demand it be replaced, ask for my money back or just plain throw it away and never buy the product again. Yet, somehow so many of us, like me at one point in my life, treat diet products like buying that same coffee pot over and over again with the exact same result, expecting that one day, through sheer will, self-control and perseverance, that coffee pot will work forever. The use of kale, a food I associate so closely with restriction, as the material for this sculpture references my weight cycling experiences, diet culture, disordered eating experiences, and within this series as a whole, it stands as my critique of the diet industry.
