Smiles & Smirks

Information

Art with a measure of humour is required by Walmarth Corporation for its chain of supermarkets, located in the Queendom of Retailia and in Cascadia Artpost. Through this collaboration Cascadia Artpost and Mail Art Martha are continuing to give impulse to Trashpo, the artistic vision of Diane Keys.

‘Walmarth Corporation is an entertaining and witty parody of corporate, consumer culture. Cascadia Artpost’s painstaking realization of Mail Art Martha’s ideas through detailed, special effects style models makes Walmarth Corporation one of the crowning achievements of Trashpo in the half-decade that it has been producing a large quantity of art.’

In addition to Trashpo the Corporation has now expanded to include political satire, parody, comics, caricature and witty playfulness.
Your contribution is needed to fill the shelves.

Comment by Mail Art Martha on January 1, 2021 at 12:53pm: Lovely salad! One modification that I would make. I will use plain gelatine and add sherry it. I always do, this is the Argentinian variety I learned from my Italian grandmother. She use Marsala.

Comment by DianeKeys on January 1, 2021 at 1:06am: I hope Walmarth carries celery and mixed vegetable flavor

Comment by Cascadia Artpost on December 31, 2020 at 11:57pm: Walmarth Cascadia Holiday Menu Suggestion: If you are in a quandary about what salad to serve at your New Year's Day meal, consider the attached suggestion recycled from from the Walmarth food recycling dumpster archive:

Comment by Mail Art Martha on December 31, 2020 at 7:11am: Yes she is, Sabrina, but too modest to admit it.

Comment by DianeKeys on December 30, 2020 at 7:02pm: Thanks for the clarification Sabrina. DK lost queen of trashpo? Is Walmarth selling Bill's fairy tale series?

Comment by Sabrina S on December 30, 2020 at 5:38pm: By the way, are you Diane the lost DK queen of trahspo?

Comment by Sabrina S on December 30, 2020 at 5:37pm: I am sorry Diane, the blazer is not reversible because, you know, some folks add some diy stains on their pullover for brighten up the pullover and that may ruin the whole outlook of the blazer...

Comment by DianeKeys on December 28, 2020 at 1:31pm: That is a great design. Is the blazer by chance reversible?

Comment by Mail Art Martha on December 28, 2020 at 12:52pm: Thank you Sabrina por clarifying a point of law. Snap buttons are required by law in Retailia in all garments, except in straightjackets.

Comment by Sabrina S on December 28, 2020 at 9:55am: Snap buttons, Diane. Because nobody has time for this inconvenient regular buttons when your work collegues ask you spontaneous for a "short talk".
