This dining event marked the beginning of a collaboration between myself and artist Kaye Winwood.
After considering the shared research interests of each of our practices, we decided to test the sensual, tactile, intimate and communal aspects of my work with an adventurous audience who engaged with the objects in relation to food to evoke different experiences and
