Sugar City: The Mini City of Sweetness

Post by sheeza » Mar 09, 2009 Views: 1207

Artist Meschac Gaba imagined a city of sugar, and then built it. Models of some of the world’s most instantly recognizable buildings form part of a exhibition called Port City at the Greenland Street gallery in Liverpool, last summer.



He filled it with instantly recognizable landmarks from around the world, such as the Taj Mahal, the Eiffel Tower, the Sydney Opera House, the London Eye, Petronas Towers, the Reichstag, the Empire State Building, and more. There are 600 buildings in the fantasy city, which measures 30 feet by 20 feet and took two years to build.
