Therefore
the alchemy (al-koumia) comes from the fallen angels, that is from the
devils and for responsibility of the feminine seduction has been spread
it around the world... (L. Parinetto, Alchemy
and utopia)
I have been asked to create a work for the Al-bunduqiyya Collection
in Venice. The collection is a 'menu' of artworks to be experienced through
the action of eating. It was presented on the 3rd June 2009 at Corte dell’Orso
in Venice.
Al Koumia. The complete Italian Female
Edible cream glosses
- Spicy and free (tomato, basil, garlic, hot pepper)
- Saucy but not too much (pesto)
- Don't be shy (four cheese)
- Sea games (tuna fish, shrimps, garlic, pepper)
- Sweet for you (chocolate, cream)
- Morning coffee (coffee, sugar)
- Drink it all (cappuccino)
Note to tasting: the complete Italian Female menu should be served
directly on the lips and tasted with French kisses. Instructions for use:
do not smoke before tasting; very long tasting time.
Designed as a 'chemosensory trip for two', the chemical molecules of the
food slowly melt into solvent watery solution (saliva).
