I am Chinese, I don't eat Dogs, but I eat Aliens

2019

The inspiration for this series came from a recipe book of preserved food that Axl Le found lying open on his in-laws table. The ways that the preserved food was visualized in the book fascinated him, particularly the light passing through the glass jars.

 

The series has elements from Asian cuisine (in particular Chinese), but with strange twists. The post-apocalyptic recipes aim to both entertain the viewer, while also encouraging reflection on how humans relate to food, as well as what kinds of food we might eat in the future.
