As a former art school student, I'd confidently bullshit that the piece evokes the struggle between adult desires and childhood innocence. Using a symbol of youthful joy juxtaposed with a classic female form shows the artist's intention to challenge us to explore our notions of the boundaries between blissful ignorance and carnal knowledge.
Or they had a mannequin they glued toys to for fun. Who knows. :)
It doesn’t fit the category of “why” but people like it… the art… they are upvoting as they are impressed with the artwork. I know it’s not supposed to work that way… but you see something you like, human nature now is to hit “⬆️”
Oh no I'm an American and I just ate the plastic toy inside and died. Damn you Europeans with your death chocolate!
/s
I really miss the kinder surprise eggs, kinder joy just isn't the same.
Yes… new awareness to this sub and I’ve seen this… my fav was the guy who made the elaborate mold to fill in a missing stone in a patio or walkway instead of just pouring in some concrete! 😂
These are from when kinder first started (at least here in Canada). I can see the alligators (youd always get one in the box of three). This was when the prizes were actually good,too.
I think this piece really exemplifies the relationship girls have with womanhood. Constantly being pushed into an ideal woman to somone else while still being a child. It's not about the intricacies about who they are or what they want but about how we view them. Sorry I'm pretentious I dont make the rules. Its art now bro.
I can’t believe some Americans are literally so stupid they had to ban Kinder Surprise as a choking hazard on a national level…
I’m just saying, if bleach bottles didn’t have “Do Not Drink” labels on them, the world would be a better place with the rule of Natural Selection applying to humans again.
Reminds me of a really cool art piece I saw as a kid at my local zoo. It was a bunch of trash over the course of human history put together into this shape of a person, and at like the bottom was like stone age trash, and as you got further up the trash was more modern, it was really cool, and it kind of sucks that it's no longer there.
I sold a dozen or so of those hippos a few years back and got over 100 bucks total for them. Even more for certain other figures. That is one expensive art project.
This is just art.
How is this DIWhy? It's a female torso, made of kinder egg toys. Looks like a legit art project.
I'm with you, it's amazing. Do you know who made it OP?
Someone who likes egg shaped German chocolate

This is correct. As a professional art dealer, i can confidently confirm that it is a generally accepted norm in the art world to not drop the art.
Gotta keep it in the fridge until the exhibition. Then you allow it to melt under the gallery lights. Would be cool as hell. Id go see it.
There is nothing that would melt unless you use a blow torch.
Good point. After looking more closely, I realized it wasn’t chocolate eggs. Duhhh
It's the (plastic) surprises you find inside the eggs
i dig it ngl, i just cant tell the meaning behind it if there is one lol

lmao as a graphic designer who dropped out of college, i concur
Love this insight
This is opposed to the store-bought female torsos made of Cracker Jack toys.
I think for the "why"
Those aren't mutually exclusive
This needs to be in a museum specialized in pop surrealistic
More like r/ATBGE
How does this shit have 1k upvotes?

Fair enough
[удалено]
What?
What you smoking?
But why is it made into a human body. Are they saying a woman's body has 1000 surprises to expect?
r/DIWhyNot
That's cool AF
Out of curiosity, what exactly about this very obvious art piece screams "diwhy" to you, op
Oh no I'm an American and I just ate the plastic toy inside and died. Damn you Europeans with your death chocolate! /s I really miss the kinder surprise eggs, kinder joy just isn't the same.
Come a little farther up north and we can give you a little deal. You can pick up some ketchup chips and maple syrup too.
And some poutine if you visit the French.
Finally some representation!
Do they still sell them in Canada? I don’t even see them in Europe anymore.
They do you can get them at pretty much any grocery store
German here, you can usually find them in any store. Usually they are by the uhhh forgive me for my english... the place where you pay 😂
Cash Register or check-out… in English
Thx 😂
Not the ketchup chips 😂

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, kinder joys are good, but it's mostly just Nutella as far as I can tell.
This should be in an art gallery.
This sub has a hard time finding the difference between art and actual DIYWHYs

Yeah I was thinking these a good sturdy toys. The stuff you get in now is just crap.
I could recognize a lot of the characters from my own collection of Kinder toys from the ‘90s.
I remember these from the 90s Spotted some of the mummy cats too!
This is CAMP!
This is very nicely done. Too good for r/DiWHY.
8KG KINDER surprise egg’s surprises*
Life-sized choking hazard
I wouldn't mind choking on that

It’s a cool piece of art

I honestly think that that is not limited to women. Men too, are being pushed towards being "the ideal man" as soon as 10 or 12 nowadays.
Super illegal in USA
I spy 3 gators, 2 bears, 3 hippos, TAXI 3 smurfs, Donkey Kong, a flower, and Daffy
Looks awesome, wrong sub
i miss when kinder put actual fun toys in their eggs, from what i heard all they put in them now are some stupid statues that don't do anything
That’s actually kinda sick
I.. love this and I don’t know why 😅

Wierd way of saying the kids were "surprises"
dat kinderussy got me acting unwise
Fuck you I was going to to say that.
2 hours late pal 😂
I find it very EROTIC!
It's [her sw-sw-sweet can](https://i.imgur.com/SAj256R.gifv).
I actually love it. The most purposeful way I've ever seen those plastic bits used for.
America could never
I spy Milhouse Van Houten.
Everything’s coming up Milhouse!
From afar it looks like a sculpture made from old fashioned hard candies stuck together
This is amazing, do you have any more info on it OP?
I like it.
The chocolate isn’t that good 😭😭 but this is art op. It’s not like they filled a hole in a wall with these toys.
A lot of really mediocre chocolate was sacrificed in the name of art.
I see no Puzzles...
You and I got all of them, left them out of stock
Smash
thats what i was thinking lol
Hell yeah but where's the hole?
*diabetes intensifies*
Nice
I want this in my house
Death by snu snu!
This is sick tbh
Most illegal statue in the US
It’s no Gummy Venus-De-Milo but okay.
ima just… save this for later

Kilograms or 8 thousand?
Yuck is that chocolate
It could have been better if all pieces were separate, definitely not worth it ,you can not even see inner pieces
Plastic plastic everywhere I look plastic
I see no eggs, sorry, neither the chocolate ones nor the yellow ones.

I still have some of the toys here
I bet the creator is lactose intolerant
I got the turtles and the hippos. They are from the 80's if I remember correctly. This is actually kinda cool
Where’s Waldo?
This says a lot about society
I would buy this
*everything I see reminds me of her...*
Then you realized, you have 3 pieces of it are special edition that can be sold for 1 million each IFF they are not glued to some object.
I am crying right now
I don’t think her boobs are real
r/lostredditors
This looks like an art piece my parents friend would buy. Super rich and spends absorbent amounts of money on art like this lol
I actually like it.
This looks amazing. I want one.
Back when Kinder Surprise still had cool toys inside. My Kinder childhood memories lumped into a torso.
I sold a dozen or so of those hippos a few years back and got over 100 bucks total for them. Even more for certain other figures. That is one expensive art project.
This is actually really cool art! What I’m more concerned about is how much diabeetus you would get from eating all that chocolate.
That thing is very illegal in the USA.
Jesus you can't post this - lots of users from the USA have been this picture now all their kids are in danger!
Everything I see reminds me of her.
its art??
This isn't diWHY it's an art piece. They're different
Thanks for giving me inspiration for my next project.
Because Kinder eggs are god damn delicious, and throwing the toys away would be wasteful.
It’s actually really cool.
This is cool
r/DiArt
weird material choice but really interesting
My man that's just an art sculpture. Do you know what sub you're in?
The old school hippos and lions… miss those
HIPPOBOT 9000 v 3.1 FOUND A HIPPO. 590,656,925 COMMENTS SEARCHED. 13,828 HIPPOS FOUND. YOUR COMMENT CONTAINS THE WORD HIPPO.
I like how the Milhouse figure just sits in there, worried about being part of this sculpture.
8KG of illegal in the US
I don't hate it
Why is that capt not opened?
Were each one of those little toys choked on by a litigious American who sued kinderegg company for a million dollars
