Singer and painter Solbi expressed her heart while writing about the controversy over the plagiarism of cakes.

On the 31st, Solbi made a statement regarding the controversy over the plagiarism of cakes through her Instagram account. He started writing with pictures of cakes saying, “2020 was a year full of scars and pains for most people living in the corona era.”

He said, “The unfinished and unfinished (my) cake looks different from the glamorous exterior, which is a portrait of the modern people who went through 2020,” he said. “When I saw the uniform cakes on display, the works of pop artists came to mind.”

He said, “The loneliness and solitude hidden behind the cheerful and colorful forms of pop art, and my unwelcome cake, which has lost its pure function of gratitude and celebration, can be felt intact.” “I asked.

At the end of the text, Solbi said, “Marcelle Duchamp looked at the toilet and remembered Sam. Jeff Koons saw the clay and the sculpture came to mind. When I looked at his sculpture, the cake came to mind. Watching Andy Warhol’s video reminded me of myself. When I look at the cake again, I think of many people in 2020.”

Earlier, on the 22nd, Solbi posted a picture of her own cake on her Instagram account, and was pointed out that the cake design was similar to the work of’play-doh’ by the American contemporary artist Jeff Kuns.

As the controversy grew, he said, “I watched kids play clay, and I was inspired by Jeff Koons’ play-doh, and made my own cake in a more free way. In fact, I didn’t know it might be an issue like this.”

However, controversy continued even after the clarification, and Solbi posted a video on Instagram on the 28th of which he eats a cake he made without saying anything. This was a performance that honored the pop art master Andy Warhol.
