Gelitin often uses plasticine in their work; its malleability, playful nature and association with children and naiveté make it an attractive material for the collective. Their plasticine paintings are a playground for their imagination to run wild and free, but as with all of their work, there is a sour irony inherent in them. Lose control for even a little bit and these plasticines can get jumbled into a big, brown ugly mess. Similar to the plush toys, these plasticine paintings touch upon the destructive nature of infantile creative impulse.
