Nobutaka Aozaki

Chocolate Compositions series is geometric compositions made out of various foil-wrapped chocolate bars. The work makes an aesthetic reference to minimalism, geometric paintings, and shaped canvas works, but also incites the ephemerality of the composition, its form, and the social and political implication of the material. Often associated with desire, indulgence, and also reward, the chocolate resignified as a sculpture on the wall creates a tension in the observer, becoming no longer a treat, but an intangible, almost sacred form that will rouse an intimate relation.
