Spices of Belonging: South Asian Food as a Cultural Anchor
The project is about my identity as a South Asian and how food played an important role in shaping my identity and personality. Food which not only fills the stomach but also nurtures a cultural gap in the society. Food can be considered a tool which is breaking national barriers and translates a medium for interactions.
Unification through the lens of food can be seen all over the UK where it gave a safe space for amalgamatin between different ethnicity to practice their culture and traditions and now it holds their hand as one society.
Food which became a tool for interactions between each individual and gave a space to nourish, Food unites us and becomes a medium between each ethnicity to come closer.
The project is a compilation of stories of individiuals who migrated from different part of the world and the common thing between them was food.
