Jesus on Toast

01/02/10 | Posted by ellen

Artist Adam Sheldon from Carlisle has created a remarkable crucifixion scene made entirely of 153 pieces of toast. The artwork is currently on display at the Anglican Church of St Peter, Great Limber, much to the delight of the Rev Felicity Couch.

Re:jesus has commented on a few unexpected faces of Jesus that have been found in remarkable places such as Cheesus and Marmite Jesus, but this is definitely a first. In this case the image has been purposely constructed as an object of reverence - this is a piece of art! It is also remarkable that such an ordinary everyday thing like toast should be used to create this image of Jesus’ death. I wonder how it makes you feel to see Jesus image appear in such an everyday foodstuff? Do you think it is art?
