Light Meets Chocolate


LlumBCN 2022 Light Festival.
Barcelona, February 2022.
Light Meets Chocolate is a performative installation in which light is used to melt chocolate so that visitors can taste it during the performance.

The old association between light and heat takes place in this piece where, with the help of time, one can observe how light is able to affect matter through its caloric potential. In this sense, chocolate properties as a material become deeply interesting, not only because of its melting capacity but also because of its gastronomic role.

Light Meets Chocolate is presented in two complementary formats: The main installation -ChocoCarrousel- and two autonomous melting points, called ChocoCarts.

Project as a collaborator with Jordi Canudas Studio.
