The Makan Season
The fundraiser closed on 17 October. Thank you, gentlehumans ;)
Hello gentlehumans ;)
There's a question that opens every conversation in Malaysia, and it isn't about the weather, it’s “Sudah Makan ah? (食飽未呀?)” Makan is Malay for "eat" — but here it's more than a verb. It's the invitation, the greeting, the whole plan: jom makan, let's eat.
Hong Kong, Berlin, Tokyo. Now the cast comes home to Malaysia, where food and dialogue happen in: one artisan café gallery, one modern European chef's kitchen, and one Japanese-influenced specialty coffee lounge.
The Makan Season. A run of shows you can eat around.
Where the money goes. The install across three sites. The trail map, signage, tasting menus and more. Shipping the cast to Kuala Lumpur. The opening reception at 「 WHITE LAND 別冊 」. First prints of the new cast members.
