Eye Candy Series | A Collection of Sweet Surrealism and Playful Sight

Date

July 2025

Location

Pittsburgh, PA

Where sweetness becomes something to look at twice.

"Eye Candy Series" is a playful and colorful collection by Gaze and Graphite that transforms desserts, candies, carnival treats, and bakery favorites into surreal eye centered artworks. Through gumdrops, frosting, sprinkles, pastries, ice cream, gingerbread, s’mores, and spun sugar color, each piece turns familiar sweetness into something whimsical, strange, and full of personality.

Rooted in themes of nostalgia, joy, indulgence, and imagination, this collection celebrates the lighter side of surrealism while still carrying the signature gaze found throughout Gaze and Graphite’s work. The eye becomes the center of each confection, turning treats into tiny worlds of observation, curiosity, and delight.

Rendered in bright candy colors, warm bakery tones, soft pastels, and playful textures, the "Eye Candy Series" blends visual sweetness with symbolic surrealism. These pieces invite viewers into a world that feels cheerful, nostalgic, and slightly unexpected, where the ordinary joy of dessert becomes a new way of seeing.

Perfect for collectors drawn to colorful surrealism, eye artwork, dessert inspired art, whimsical wall décor, and playful visual storytelling, the "Eye Candy Series" is a joyful celebration of sweetness, imagination, and the strange beauty of looking at the world through something delicious.
