This is Francoise Zarasoa, a cocoa farmer from Madagaskar who produces cocoa for Madécasse chocolate. I painted her portrait with chocolate as part of my chocolate portrait project to show the world the faces behind the chocolate we consume. Nate Engel of Madécasse then printed a photo of the portrait , framed it and brought it to Francoise who was totally caught by surprise! I never thought about the possibility of the portraits travelling back to the people who’s faces I depicted from a photo, without knowing them. This truly brings us closer and shows how there can be a more conscious connection between producers and consumers if only we show a little interest!

CHOCOLATE ARTE
is an art project about the cultural history of cacao and chocolate. The project aims to raise more awareness about the historical and cultural values of cacao in different cultures through different artistic activities like art workshops, exhibitions and tasting sessions.
It consists of a growing series of portraits painted with pure 80% chocolate from Ecuador. The faces depicted are of people from all over the world involved in the production of cacao and chocolate, these can be cacao farmers, artisan chocolate makers, importers and people who work for cooperatives that represent cacao farmers. The portrait project is a colaboration with ClearChox chocolate importers and retailers.
Chocolate Arte also offers art courses for children and adults about the history and present use of chocolate in different cultures. The first pilot series called ‘Zjokola’ took place in Amsterdam from april till june 2015, collaborating with “Noordjes Kinderkunst” with the support of the Amsterdam Fund for the Arts. (see also below in this blog)
In these workshops participants explore the history and use of chocolate and cacao in their own culture through different art media like drawing, painting, printing, video and photography, drama and music as well as through recipes that make use of cacao and chocolate. The workshop series always end with a presentation and a publication that can be used as a point of departure for the next workshop.
