Initiated in Winter 2014, Politics of Food was the first thematic programme introduced by Delfina Foundation.
After 5 seasons, over 90 residencies, and a publication, we’re thrilled to see the programme materialise in ‘The Politics of Food: Origin Stories’, an evening of telling stories with food, organised by The Institutum in partnership with Delfina Foundation.
Each course presented a new chapter, blending lore, cultural traditions, and culinary innovation conceptualised by chefs Law Jia-Jun and Cesar Perez de Anda and artists Ho Fan Chon and Arin Rungjang with curators Aaron Cezar and Clara Che Wei Peh. Special mentions to Kim Whye Kee, Lewis Choo Li Wei, Ong Si Hui, Prach Pimarnman, Sapphire Blast, and Humid House for their contributions and interventions.
Thank you to all our supporters who made the evening a success and continue to advocate for Delfina’s programming year after year.
We can’t wait to see where Politics of Food takes us next!
