This panel asks the questions: Can art be eaten? Is eating an art? Food is an inspirational medium becoming increasingly more prevalent in art and performance. Food is a medium that crosses the boundaries between the mundane and the avant-garde. How are food artists using edible inspiration to change the definition of art and the definition of eating?
