I was having a quiet Sunday evening blog browse, and found this post that I have to share with you.

Reblogged from  Jello San Francisco! | Stephen Kelly Creative

I’ve seen San Francisco in many forms, up and down, good and bad. I’ve seen in portrayed in photos, essays, TV and the movies, which means I’ve seen it attacked by a deranged terrorist (The Rock), overrun with apes (Rise Of The Planet of The Apes), invaded by body snatchers and a giant sea octopus (It Came From Beneath The Sea). I’ve seen all of this and more, but I’ve never seen it made of Jello!

Liz Hickock is a San Francisco-based artist who creates entire miniature city landscapes from this classic dessert which she then lights from underneath to produce this weird but interesting luminous effect. According to the artist, “I drew the inspiration for this project from my immediate surroundings — San Francisco, where the geological uncertainties of the landscape evoke uncanny parallels with the gelatinous material.” Since Jello doesn’t last long in room temperature, she captures the scenes for posterity in photos and video … check out the vid of an “earthquake” on Telegraph Hill at the end of this post.

My city in Jello. Looks like yet another “only in San Francisco moment!”
