The Sparrow Mart is both an art installation and a shop. Artist Lucy Sparrow has recreated an entire Los Angeles supermarket out of felt, and the stuffed foodie items are all for sale.
The Mart features over 31,000 hand-painted and sewn versions of every grocery item imaginable, all available for purchase (prices start at $5, with many items running $20 – $40). “Shoppers” can view fruit, vegetables, sushi, fish, meat, frozen food, candy, liquor, and a health and beauty department. Sparrow Mart even has a VHS section, featuring ’80s classics like Footloose, Dirty Dancing, and Short Circuit.
