Gene Wilder 3D Meme

So you all know the Gene Wilder memes…or do you? This creation is for a very specific audience, I have found. The goal was to make an “in real life” painting (ultimately, it should be anything but Mr. Wilder: your smart friend, a pet, an anthropomorphized vegetable) and when the mood strikes, you make a meme out of them by using stick on letters (in this case) or magnetic (in my goal prototype).

It seems a bit hard to parse by certain age groups. My parents (75+) asked what a meme was. My younger friends wondered why it’s not on social media. So I have rethought my concept: it’s a painting that you can make say anything. BOOM!
