PLAT DU JOUR: A CULINARY ACTION

December 01, 2025 in selected projects

Plat Du Jour: A Culinary Action, 2018. The project explores the realities of home and female identity through the rituals of food and sustenance bringing together the practices of an artist, a writer and a chef. Drawing from Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s 1903 study, The Home: Its Work and Influence, the work examines domestic dynamics through the lens of the female homemaker.

Food functions as both a medium of labor and a catalyst for social connection. The multimedia exhibition integrates performative acts and live cooking, culminating in a communal dinner.
