Bon Appetit

2024

performance: 210'

exhibition: 4x canal audio composition, kitchen and it's elements, food

Before the opening of the exhibition, a fine dining culinary experience took place in the gallery space.

With a carefully thought-out conceptual design and media diversity, questions begin to arise: what do eating and an event have in common? Food and the gallery? Cultural and fine dining events?

I see fine dining and cultural events as closely connected, as both involve rituals with aesthetic and symbolic dimensions and/or highlight cultural, societal, and anthropological differences and codes of behavior. Through the work, I examine these connections via unusual, surprising, and bizarre events that diverge from traditional notions of high culture.

This is the first attempt at incorporating food and its consumption. I see the potential for a multi-year investigation in this project, which would evolve through various materials, media, and approaches, continually shifting and opening up new perspectives.
