Rolling Like a Meatball

$500.00

This playful yet layered composition pulses with chaotic energy and sly humor. The phrase “I was rolling like a meatball” repeats and spirals across the canvas in whimsical fonts, becoming both mantra and motif. Flattened circles—perhaps stylized meatballs or planetary bodies—anchor the lower portion, tumbling across textural strata of recipes, ingredients, tableware, and playful gestural lines.

Hints of a domestic landscape emerge: pasta swirls, leafy herbs, a ceramic bowl, and handwritten script. The aqua and minty green palette, overlaid with translucent creams and peaches, softens the otherwise frenetic pace, evoking the nostalgia of mid-century kitchens or scribbled family recipes passed down with affection and laughter.

Through overlapping transparencies, the visual rhythm mimics motion—a comedic tumble, a mess in motion, a metaphor for momentum. The phrase “rolling like a meatball” becomes absurd yet relatable, suggesting a moment of surrender to gravity, emotion, or fate.

“Rolling Like a Meatball” is both a visual pun and a meditation on chaos and comfort—where identity, memory, and humor collide like ingredients in a simmering pot.
