candyplatz




Food transcends the mundane. What we eat tell the stories of our past, reaching into history to construct identities in the present and wishes for the future. Whether physical or emotional, we eat to fill needs—satisfying our cravings, nourishing our bodies, assuaging our fears, offering comfort and so on.

In this installation, Candyplatz, Brendan Goh (Singapore) and Andrea Coyotzi Borja (Mexico) re-imagine a part of Berlin in candies and other sweet foods, transforming the Fernsehturm and its surroundings into a confectionary playground for the consumption of viewers.
