Made by pouring molten chocolate into very cold water, chocolate coulage is a classic method of surrealist inquiry. The poetic interpretation of such plastic objects and their arrangements is the way by which the imagination can project its desires and obsessions onto a physical substrate (in this case, the streaming chocolate, after it has solidified).
The chocolate in this collection of photos was poured on Friday July 20, as a celebration of "Coulage Day," a special day created by SLAG for the 2007 London International Festival of Surrealism.
