Ayako Suwa – FOOD CREATION
Ayako Suwa – FOOD CREATION
To Eat vs. To Taste. The two concepts have never been so distant and opposed: ‘to eat is to live, to taste is to evolve’. Taste goes deep into yourself, hits the unconscious and awakes instinct. What reaches your stomach is not nourishment, but pure emotion.
That’s the concept of Ayako Suwa’s food creations. The japanese food artist abandons any superficial approach to the food medium.
In his dedicatory letter to Ayako, Marc Bretillot, a trench food design institution, sans that ber work “opens new perspectives, experiments with a repertory of forms and uses about the Intimate. The emotions emerge and the dialogue, nearly erotic and without preliminaries, is being established between the one who offers the food and the one who receives it”.
Founded in 2006, Food Creations offers new forms of food representation and spreads them worldwide through exhibitions, performances and guerrilla restaurants.
