Entangled Flavours

I was born to a Chinese family, studied in an English school and grew up in an Islamic country called Brunei. Throughout my life I was exposed to different cultures and foods. Food is one of the basic necessities of life. It can also have great personal significance when we share it with family and friends. Food is an effective way to connect with others and a tangible way to immerse in many different cultures. This series is inspired by my experience of living in Melbourne. It explores my journey in collisions of food and merging of cultures. It is personal reflection of who I am now. In Chinese culture, inviting guests to our home for a meal is a sign of trust. With this series, I hope to invite people to contemplate new and adventurous food narratives.
