This week starting off with a small tutorial with Jules and Emma. In my group there was Evie and Vicki, it was nice to listen to their ideas as well. Emma and Jules both agree that food and fashion is a huge topic and I need to narrow it down. Since I mentioned about my favourite morning routine is making matcha, Emma suggest me to read the book called Ritual, I will try to find it in library. I also mentioned about the food zine I made for my family business and how I appreciate the cultural mix from my parents, Jules suggested me to work on the culture identity and recommended me some museums that I should check out. I’m coming to London this weekend and I planed to visit Japan House London since they’re doing an exhibition about the Japan’s Food. I think it will be beneficial for me in term of food styling and colour theory.
Here is the ingredient of making Cash Ca Dang (bitter pea soup), consist of lots of homemade ingredients that you can find in the garden of Ede people. I might try to find those pictures I took in April and make some collages with them maybe.
I have made a Google form to collect some opinions about food and fashion (can be seen on my sketchbook), there are pretty good response that I want to focus on more. I also want to interview some of my international friend about their food routine and outfit routine. Since international students are far away from home so food is a way that we feel like home.
I’m gonna have to submit a formative presentation for Business Plan next week and start researching my essay. I felt a bit overwhelmed. However, I would to spend most of my time in library and museums to research and get inspiration and also epxeriments with different media.
