Waddesdon reveal Joana Vasconcelos: Wedding Cake
Part sculpture, part architectural garden folly, Wedding Cake is an extraordinary, enormous, fully immersive sculpture which combines pâtisserie and architecture. Gleaming and icing-like outside and in, it offers an intricate and richly sensory experience – glazed in pale pinks, greens, and blues, beset with sculptural ornament and complete with the sounds of trickling water and a site-specific lighting scheme.
Wedding Cake is Vasconcelos' most ambitious commission to date, described by the artist as "a temple to love that celebrates festivity and marriage (artist's impression, right).
