Anya Gallaccio (born 1963) is a British artist, who creates site-specific, minimalist installations and often works with organic matter (including chocolate, sugar, flowers and ice). Her use of organic materials results in natural processes of transformation and decay, meaning that Gallaccio is unable to predict the end result of her installations. Something which at the start of an exhibition may be pleasurable, such as the scent of flowers or chocolate, would inevitably become increasingly unpleasant over time. The timely and site-specific nature of her work make it notoriously difficult to document. Her work therefore challenges the traditional notion that an art object or sculpture should essentially be a monument within a museum or gallery. Instead her work often lives through the mem

En fer servir materials orgànics dona lloc a processos naturals de transformació i descomposició, cosa que significa que Gallaccio és incapaç de predir el resultat final de les seves instal·lacions. Quelcom que a l'estrena d'una exposició pot ser plaent, com ara l'aroma de flors o xocolata, inevitablement arribaria a ser cada vegada més desagradable amb el temps. La naturalesa puntual i específica del seu treball fa que sigui molt difícil de documentar. Per tant, el seu treball qüestiona la noció tradicional segons la qual un objecte d'art o una escultura ha de ser essencialment un monument dins d'un (ca)
