Too Hot-Sculpture

The "Too Hot-Sculpture" is a humorous steel-rod artwork that can be found in the heritage zone of George Town, as part of the "Marking George Town" street art series. This sculpture cleverly captures a feeling that many visitors to Penang can relate to: the fiery kick of the local cuisine. The artwork would typically depict a caricature of a person having an exaggerated reaction to eating a very spicy dish, like a chili-laden curry or sambal.

Placed in an area known for its food, this sculpture celebrates Penang's bold and flavorful culinary heritage with a touch of wit. It's a fun and relatable piece that adds to the narrative of the streets, telling a story not just of history, but of the culture of food that is so central to the Penang experience.
