Presented in conjunction with TASTE, Root Division's annual culinary event, Feast Your Eyes features artists whose work incorporates food as the core material to their process or as key subject matter. This exhibition presents work which explores the role of food as center in their artistic practice including, but not limited to, its ability to act as a connector, as a critique of production, consumption or cultural appropriation, or as a medium for abstracted processes.

Curated by Carolyn Tillie, this group exhibition is presented in tandem with the release of her upcoming book, Feast Your Eyes: Edible Art from Apples to Zucchini, which explores the history of food as a raw material for various art forms, and also prepared food as edible, ephemeral work of art in its own right.

Feast Your Eyes exhibits work that reflects this methodology - creating with, through and about food - resulting in various outcomes ranging from video, photography, installation, performance, two-dimensional work, sculpture and more.

Feast Your Eyes is presented in conjunction with Root Division’s annual spring fundraiser, TASTE. For more information on this special event hosted on Thursday, April 18th, as well as how to purchase tickets, please visit:
