Our Goal
Creating a Sanctuary for Developmental Disabilities:
Empowering Inclusion and Promoting Social Acceptance Through Art and Food
Why food?
Food and art have always had a synergy: either when we engage with art or food, there are feelings evoked from engaging with them.
Just as art can evoke powerful emotions, so too can the aroma, presentation, and flavor of a well-prepared dish.
“Food is my parallel passion. As a giant foodie and gourmet hunter, with an extensive experience in art, I see it as a universal and sensory language that can integrate art with life and an effective creative medium to communicate emotions to people with all abilities.”
—Founder
Both food and art offer outlets for creativity and self-expression. Whether it’s through the intricate plating of a dish or the brushstrokes of a painting, artists and chefs alike use their craft to communicate ideas, emotions, and experiences. The act of creating and sharing food or art can be deeply personal and cathartic, allowing individuals to express themselves in ways that words alone cannot capture.
ArtEats is for
EVERYONE
While the initial conception stemmed from facilitating children facing developmental challenges, the multisensory and expressive nature of food as an artistic medium holds universal appeal. The principles and activities presented in ArtEats can be appreciated and explored by anyone, regardless of age or background, who wishes to integrate art into their daily experiences.
We hope this program led learners to see food design as an artistic expression that can inspire a diverse public: find meaningful values and enjoy life in a tiny bite and kitchen corner.
Hope you enjoy it.
Have fun.
