‘DISH’ is a major exhibition indulging in the beauty and complexity of food. Beyond mere sustenance, food binds us to family, friends and culture, shaping our identities, preserving traditions and igniting memory.

An essential source of nourishment and a fundamental influence on our routines and decisions, food represents more than just the everyday. The artists featured in ‘DISH’ delve into the ways food allows us to share stories, explore creativity and feel connectedness. An examination of human connection to the world, this exhibition explores how we harness natural resources and how we engage with each other.

A dynamic celebration featuring contemporary crafts, sculpture, printmaking and stories, ‘DISH’ invites us to consider our layered relationships with food.

Featuring: Mechelle Bounpraseuth, ChiliPhilly, Zena Cumpston, Laetitia Olivier-Gargano, Callum Preston and Elizabeth Willing.

DISH is on display at Town Hall Gallery from 7 February until 27 April 2024
