Fascinating puddings, cup cakes, colorful macaroons and jelly beans, are put on the middle of artist’s canvas enormously. She sprinkles acrylic paints and lets it dribbling layer by layer. It seems like the viewers can feel and smell the flavor of the desserts. However, Wang’s desserts are not eatable or touchable, it is just a fantasy that artist plays with.
