I noticed women around me, including myself, constantly consumed by others while simultaneously consuming themselves. I began to think of cake as a central image in my work because it represents reward, display, and curated perfection. When I first began this series, my cakes were trophies, representing my childhood as something defeated. But as my work progressed, I began to see my identity and cake as the same, reflecting how expectation, desire, and memory accumulate much like layers of a cake. I hand sculpt and life cast with materials such as silicone, wax, foam, plaster, and found objects, exploring the uncomfortable, the hyperfeminine, and the grotesque. My surreal figures represent selfhood as something that is continually consumed and remade.\" - Arielle Tesoriero\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Untitled Space","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42747083292754,"sku":null,"price":1200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0281\/6235\/9378\/files\/ArielleTesoriero_TeenMissPromtasia_2026_5939TheUntitledSpaceDREAMExhibit.jpg?v=1790104402","url":"https:\/\/untitled-space.art\/products\/arielle-tesoriero-teen-miss-promtasia","provider":"The Untitled Space","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
