Artist Amanda Bennetts says she becomes upset when advertisements for funeral homes, including coffins, appear in her social media feed. According to multiple outlets, she responds by creating a sculptural artwork that draws directly on the experience of receiving those targeted ads.
The reports describe her work as a reaction to being served funeral-related advertising and frame it as a way to transform the annoyance or discomfort into a physical, public art piece. While the coverage focuses on the same trigger and the same overall concept—turning the ads into an artwork—outlets emphasize different aspects of tone and presentation, ranging from how the ads affect her personally to how the resulting sculpture conveys a harsher, confrontational response.
Across the sources, the central facts remain consistent: Bennetts identifies the appearance of funeral-home advertisements online as the catalyst, and she uses sculpture to reinterpret that content. The stories generally treat the artwork as both critique and creative repurposing of targeted marketing rather than as an endorsement of the ads themselves.
