Kevin Champeny’s Gummy Bear Art for Modern Interiors

Gummy Bears Reimagined: Resin Sculptures for Playful Yet Provocative Interiors

Kevin Champeny is no stranger to reimagining the ordinary. As a renowned mosaic artist, he transforms nostalgia-infused objects, like the humble gummy bear, into powerful artistic statements. His vibrant gummy bear art blends playfulness with precision, using thousands of hand-cast resin bears to create high-impact wall sculptures, mosaics, and full-scale installations.

Best known for the now-iconic gummy bear chandelier featured on Nickelodeon’s iCarly, Kevin has expanded the medium far beyond lighting. Today, his works range from gallery-grade resin wall art to daring candy mosaic art that graces luxury interiors, private collections, and public exhibitions.

The Rise of Gummy Bear Art in Contemporary Design

The idea began with curiosity: What if candy could become fine art? Kevin sculpted his first miniature gummy bear, then multiplied it, over and over, into thousands of hand-cast forms. The initial chandelier was just the start. The concept evolved into a broader collection of gummy bear sculptures that play with color, repetition, and form.

Beyond kitsch, these works explore cultural themes: innocence, indulgence, memory, and mass consumption. They offer something rare, art that makes you feel and smile at the same time. Kevin’s gummy bear art has grown from a pop culture reference into a contemporary design staple.

Resin Wall Art Made from Thousands of Hand-Cast Bears

Each gummy bear starts as a sculpture, painstakingly carved by Kevin before molds are made using hand-poured silicone. From there, polyurethane resin is custom dyed (not painted) in dozens of colors to match a piece’s tone and palette. Kevin’s studio processes involve batch casting thousands of bears for each artwork.

The bears are then meticulously sorted by color and individually glued into their final form, whether a mosaic heart, skull, portrait, or freeform wall sculpture. What results is resin wall art that feels alive with texture, color, and meaning.
