Someone to hear your prayer

Your Own Personal Milk Chocolate Jesus

He's appeared on pancakes, toast and baking sheets, but for his next heavenly engagement, Jesus Christ has turned to chocolate.

On April 1, artist Cosimo Cavallaro will unveil a 6-foot-tall, anatomically correct rendering of Jesus in milk chocolate at a midtown Manhattan hotel.

Billed as "My Sweet Lord," the sculpture took 200 pounds of chocolate to create, and it's already astounded the staff of LAB, the New York arthouse that sponsored the work.

"His art always gets a reaction, but this is the most dramatic piece of his career," says Matt Semler, the LAB's creative director. "It is absolutely amazing”


Not sure how much credence to give this report, given the unveiling date, and that the source is Faux Noise.

EDIT: Nooooooooo!!!!!
