Encounter towers of mangosteens, big bowls of dragon fruits and giant stacks of canned food in this new interactive exhibition that bursts with colour, memory and ritual. Mechelle Bounpraseuth is known for her hand-built, glossy ceramics depicting food and other homely treasures. In this exhibition of newly commissioned works, large-scale ceramic sculptures honour the family dining table and the labour of preparing and sharing food. Fruit – especially the kind from her Lao parents’ homeland – is given sacred status as a currency of love.
