Established in 2005, Chrome Chocolate is a concept that proclaims in
working together, artists can achieve a unique cultural voice.
Designed to be a collaborative entity, Chrome Chocolate combines a
group of artists, with a focus on cutting edge work, to create and
collaborate in an installation format, with the intention to build a
bridge over the gap between high and low art.
Under the Chrome Chocolate name, each artist maintains the individual
direction of their work; in painting, design, sculpture, photography
and multimedia, while creating projects and installations charged with
relentless energy.
The artists in Chrome Chocolate combine art and graffiti, popular
culture and tradition, and the silly and the serious, offering
original or limited edition works of art at affordable prices.

"Chrome Chocolate delivers coherent shape to artistic freedom."
