“Food, movie, swimming, book, nature, speed, black, passionate, technology, painting, thinking, gallery, diligence, camera, story, independent, abstract, travel, curiosity… I observe life, care the world, create art.”

ABOUT THE PROJECT
Food is an ordinary thing to us, high in accessibility while often belittled in our daily life. Rola plays around with the Mandarin homophonic sound and English titles to create different dishes using food as the carrier, to challenge people’s stereotypes and extend our thinking about human nature.
