From April 22, a new special exhibition and a permanent exhibition will open at “Felissimo Chocolate Museum” in Chuo-ku, Kobe, until July 15.
The new exhibitions will run until July 15!
The facility introduces the history and culture of chocolate and cacao around the world, as well as their connection to fashion and art, from the perspective of “happiness.
Chocolate Story: Memories of Cacao or Dreams Shown by Cacao” features 6 groups of 9 artists.
The first is “Chocolate Story: Memories of Cacao or Dreams Shown by Cacao. The first is “Chocolate Story: Memories of Cacao, or Dreams Shown by Cacao,” in which female artists of the moment will present various dreamscapes shown to them by cacao in a variety of media, including sculpture, graphics, video, and photography. At the same time, the exhibition will also feature contributions from people who work with cacao, such as experience reports, travelogues, and essays.
The “Too Sweet Dresses” Exhibition
The second is the “Too Sweet Dresses” exhibition. This exhibition features artworks made by sewing together recycled candy and chocolate wrappers into dresses, corsets, and other forms. The venue is calling for donations of chocolate wrappers to be used as materials for the next work.
Cute Chocolate Packages Selected by “KAWAII”” Exhibition
On the same day, the permanent exhibition was also renewed. Under the title of “Cute Chocolate Packages Selected by ‘KAWAII’,” planners, buyers, editorial directors, and other creative people involved in fashion and miscellaneous goods will present their own “cute” chocolate packages that they consider “cute” with their unique sense of taste. They will select and display their “favorite chocolate packages” that they think are “cute” with their own unique sense. They will be passionately discussing the cuteness of their own “guess chocolate” packages. <
Each of the exhibits makes me want to eat chocolate! I especially thought the initiative to donate wrapping paper for the next exhibit was really interesting.
