The visitor begins the journey with a table that elegantly morphs into a sweeping ribbon. As the viewer nears the end of the exhibit, the table curves down through the wall, signifying that the cuisine will continue evolving, but will always be rooted in culture, community, and survival.
Discs hover below the table, projecting holograms of each essential ingredient. Highlighted with each projection is a pin which contains a story behind each ingredient and its origin—guiding the viewer through a timeline.
The exhibit is packaged in a hand-crafted circular wooden book which was laser cut, stained and handbound. The form of the book was chosen to symbolize a plate and humble origins.
