SHIFTING SIMMERS

Sifting Shimmers is a multidisciplinary body of work that delves into the intricate connections between familial order, food traditions, and domestic labor dynamics. This collection of work highlights how the act of making and consuming food is not only essential for nourishing our bodies, but also for connecting us to our families and histories.

Drawing inspiration from culinary traditions, Sifting Shimmers explores the complexities and fragility of familial structures that are often framed by the promise of happiness. Through a mix of visual and sensory elements, the work provides a unique and immersive experience that invites the viewer to contemplate the role of food and tradition in shaping our personal and collective identities.

By examining the interplay between food, culture, and family dynamics, Sifting Shimmers reveals how the act of cooking and sharing meals can serve as a powerful tool for exploring our connections to the past and present. Each piece in this body of work offers a unique perspective on the complex and multifaceted nature of family relationships and challenges us to reconsider our assumptions about what it means to be part of a family and a community.
