The cheese wall separating Mexico and the U.S.

Artist Cosimo Cavallaro is building a wall in the Mexico-U.S. border using cheese blocks.

Cavallaro

explained the inspiration behind his cheese wall : “I don’t like walls. So this is a wall that I can handle, this is a wall I can live with, because this wall is a perishable, it will not last. The cheese is spoiled. It just means that for the regulations it’s not to be consumed.”

According to Artnet , the artist wants to explain how absurd is it to build a wall and spent millions on it, although the cheese wall is a motivational message.

Cosimo Cavallaro

is asking for donations to complete the wall through a GoFundMe campaign.

This is not the last time the artist has used food to create an art installation , previously, he made a full-size sculpture of Jesus using chocolate and covered rooms using mozzarella and ketchup .
