Mom said, "Don't play with your food," but I don't recall her saying, "Don't paint on your food." She probably thought it wouldn't come up - little did she know.
According to their Flickr site, The Great Tortilla Conspiracy is an art show that uses tortillas as a canvas to "raise issues related to identity, immigration, miracle tortilla apparitions, the high price of tortillas in Mexico, and the rise of Transgenic Corn".
The tortilla art exhibit runs through April 23th at San Fransisco's SomArts Bay Gallery. It features a tortilla hall of fame with portraits of artists and community leaders on tortillas. What a "corny" honor to be drawn on a tortilla!
Next time I'm out for Mexican food I may have to use my fork and some red and green salsa to start painting. It sounds like fun!
If you could paint something on a tortilla, what would it be?
