Artificial soup cans
A play on artificial intelligence and Campbell's soup cans painting by Warhol, this painting also looks like a game of surrealistic Tetris. Actually Campbell's soup just rebranded their product as just Campbell's, without the soup. Better than rebranding as just Soup. Maybe they wont put anything in the can, buyer beware. The can says Campbell's but there is no soup for you. Like the famous Seinfeld episode. Talk about shrinkflation, now they sell us packaging without anything in it, just so you can give your guests the impression that you have food on the shelves. Also go to impress the recycling bin workers... hey look, these people eat Campbell's soup because there is a can in the bin (it never had soup in it). Or you can fill it with your own soup. There is a business idea... sell an an empty soup can with a recipe printed on it, then people can make their own soup. Artificial intelligence.
