Exhibition by Bettina Hvidevold Hystad and Simon Torssell Lerin who announce the result of of a three month stay for the Art-in-residence program. The exhibition Kyoto Dinner Experiments is the result of a three month long process where we have met, shared cooking experiences and had dinners with people living in Kyoto. Japan and Scandinavia both have a strong tradition using fish but in very different ways, this became an interesting starting point for our dinners. By inviting the participants to our home and to cook with us we shared our experiences and exchanged our recipes. For the exhibition we asked the participants to use what they learned from our first dinner together and bring a new Japanese-Scandinavian hybrid fish dish. Through the dinners we wanted to create new meetings and collaborations that otherwise wouldn’ t occur. In the process the participants were challenged and their approach to this decided the outcome, making the project and the exhibition a dynamic collaboration.
