When I was in the 5th or 6th grade, my gifted class visited the High Museum of Art while the chocolate busts of "some artist" were displayed. She'd also created soap busts, but I could care less about those. What I liked was the chocolate. I remember thinking, "Licking chocolate? How can anyone call that work?" I was fascinated. Sadly, I couldn't remember the name of the artist after all these years. But thanks to the wonderful service that is the internet, I found her name and some images of those sculptures.
Her name is Janine Antoni, and you can find information about her here. There are also video clips, so check it out.
