Fade and Bloom
Project by Rae Zheng
This project is a culinary experience using Nordic textile as a medium to carry out the microbes for fermentation, specifically to produce different umami (delicious taste). This gastronomic approach is for the purpose of developing and enhancing the relationship between traditional flavors and cultures, and also to reshape the perception of how we produce and consume.
