An expression of abundance and excess, which can also be read as a metaphor for a society in surplus, where consumption and desire uncontrollably spring. The incorporation of an obese woman evokes memories of the work of Colombian painter Fernando Botero, whose figuratively voluptuous depictions of human bodies and objects ironically questioned societal conventions and norms. Just as Botero highlighted weight and fullness as signs of wealth and luxury in his works, one might also recognize a connotation of pleasure and wealth here. But this expression of excess also leads us to reflect on the social and bodily dimension of overconsumption. It's a bold depiction of human weakness and at the same time a subtle critique of our society's obsession with food and consumption.
