Sharing some pics and thanks to everyone who came down to our EAT DRINK MSG pop up!

We invited friends and family for a deep dive into the subject of MSG, to untangle fact from fiction, in a collaborated effort with @celestialpeach_uk @myneighboursthedumplings sponsored by @know_msg
Team assembled by @angeliahuii , project led by @celestialpeach_uk
Dishes excellently executed by: @trungienguyen and @swilipino

@celestialpeach_uk describes it best using
“…new and nostalgic Cantonese food and drink pairings”

In celebration of the lesser known fifth sense of taste umami.
The menu tells a story from our accumulated up bringings and Cantonese heritage.
A great opportunity to show case both the modern direction of savoury cocktails and the abundance of umami in Cantonese cuisine.

Some of our favourite foods; Parmesan, cured meats, shell fish and mushrooms, all contain high concentrations of glutamic acid, an amino acid present in most proteins.

When this protein is broken free, becoming a glutamate molecule, it can form bonds with new friends such as sodium. This creates a relationship we all love, it’s the buddy we enjoy, even if a little misunderstood: Mono Sodium GlutaMATE or MSG. #knowmsg

That’s right: MSG, can be naturally occurring, and can be found all over our planet and throughout human culinary history.

It’s free from additives, there’s nothing synthetic about it, is extremely delicious, and it was the main character in each drink and dish for the event.

Will be sharing more details of dishes and pairings soon!

Aika pysähtyä, kiittää.

🌲 Kiitos joogit ✨rakkaan rihmaston peruskallio. Tänän vuoden teema on ollut syklisyys. Olemme jooganneet ITSEämme kuunnellen. Osa teistä on saapunut tunnille vain makaamaan (esim. leikkauksesta toipuessaan). Yksi teistä laittaa tunnin korviin ja meloo järvellä, toinen kävelee puistossa lapsen harrastuksen välissä. Kuulen palautteestanne, miten olemme YHDESSÄ siirtyneet syvemmälle. Asennoista hengityksen kautta ITSEen ja edelleen syvempään voimaan.

🌲Kiitos opettajani @susannalendiera. Sinun kauttasi maailmani on muuttunut ehjäksi/kokonaiseksi. Kuten Elias Lönnrot väitöskirjassaan totesi: ”Tieto joka on lähtöisin toiselta puolelta, on hyvin yksipuolinen”. Erityisesti viisautesi lähestyä asioita niiden SYNTYä ymmärtämällä on avannut ymmärryksen maailmaan, jossa ei ole rajoja kulttuurien, maiden tai ihmisten välissä.

🌲Kiitos ”Yhteinen matka ITSEen” ryhmä. Ensimmäinen laatuaan. Syksy on ollut syvä ja hyvä kokemus, jota ei voi sanoittaa.

Daniel will be joined by Yuen Chan (a senior lecturer in the Department of Journalism at City, University of London), Wang Wei (an exhibiting artist, a photographer based in London and from China) and Diana Yeh (a Senior Lecturer in Sociology, Culture and the Creative Industries and Associate Dean of Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (SCC) at City, University of London) they all engaged in their own practices that explore the exhibition’s core themes of identity, geographies, borders, migration narratives, the homogenisation of experiences and identities within East and South East Asian communities, the ethics of representation and more.

Can we ever be perceived as stateless? Or is being stateless defined by the eye of the beholder? While the term typically refers to a person not considered as a national by any state, it can also connote the rejection of any certainty of where we belong. It can indicate an intentional decision to exist beyond physical boundaries inscribed by others; a desire to be defined not by our skin colours or features, but by our actions and who we are as humans.

The intro paragraph of the curatorial statement I wrote for State-less 無國界 Exhibition runs deep in my belief and also informs my own design and artistic practice of exploring the impact of our individual and collective actions on the environment.

It's been such a pleasure to curate State-less, getting to know all the artists, their works, and working with @twotempleplace and @remhone. It's my first proper curatorial project and I've learnt so much from being a curator, to experience being on the opposite end of producing an exhibition, as opposed to being an exhibiting artist. Special thanks to all the artists and the team @kakilangarts especially @antingpig @agirlatagallery @sandy_sw237

We've received great feedback from visitors and the press so far. Please come visit Two Temple Place to see the exhibition! State-less 無國界 Exhibition opens to the public until 9th April. See link in bio.

"State-less is a thought-provoking display that sheds light on the visible and invisible boundaries that continue to shape our experience of the world, while giving voice to the diversity of a region that is too often seen as homogeneous." - @artreview_magazine

“State-less 無國界 is well-curated (thanks to Ling Tan), a thought-provoking exhibition... an excellent opportunity to get to know cutting-edge East and South East Asian artists. Plus also a masterclass in creative exhibition design.” - @saltertonartsreview

“... the intention isn’t for you to walk away with an encyclopaedic knowledge of any one or more cultures, but to see that myriad differences exist, and possibly develop an interest to further explore the variety.” - @londonartroundup
