Deconstruction of the beauty from the art

Süßer Kannibalismus / SWEET CANNIBALISM (2007)


This work is formed by 8 kilos of white and black chocolate copies of parts of my body. These eatable sculptures rest in glass trays placed around three light boxes and three narrative photographies printed in retroprojectable paper.

The body is thus transformed into a consumable object that generates desire at the hands of sight and smell.

During the opening at Gallery Lisi Hämmerle in Austria these pieces could be savoured by the exhibition visitors. All of them were photographed eating parts of the body.
