WORKSHOP

As part of my project, I hosted a workshop titled “Make Your Own Protest Mooncakes”, heavily inspired by Hong Kong’s Anti-Extradition Mooncakes, as well as my Singaporean-Malaysian-Chinese heritage.

Participants can create and consume mooncakes with personalized protest messages. They will get to create their own mooncake stamps using 3D-printed letters, numbers, symbols and designs, and imprint the messages on the stamps on the mooncakes.

This workshop encourages participants to merge personal, cultural, and political expression through food. I will also be facilitating conversations about food’s political significance, encouraging participants to reflect on its role in their own lives.
