UnBox 2012: Food Labyrinth

FoodLab at the UnBox Festival 2012 aims at creating voyages that challenge the way one experiences and consumes food.

FoodLab aims to curate a special social space, which inspires ideas of discovery and exploration to the act of consuming and thinking about food. FoodLab will bring culinary trendsetters like Gresham Fernandes (Smokehouse Grill/India), Mia Morikawa (Japan), Constance Marx (France), Arijit Bose (Mixologist/India) and Smita Singh (Elma"s/ India) to direct a gastronomical social experiment.

The Food Labyrinth is a modern day ritual feast at the Max Mueller Bhawan, created primarily with repurposed materials found in Delhi. A playground of whimsical gastronomic adventures, the food labyrinth is all about using off-beat methods to experience food in a multi-sensorial environment. Chemistry and Mixology fuses at the Absolut Liquid Lab, to create new forms of consumption and tasting that aims to intrigue and engage; Local treasures from the ever bustling Old Delhi street markets share space with an assemblage of fresh organic produce; and inventive live cooking stations where invited dreamers-meet-cooks whip up recipes both traditional and modern, telling guests stories about their genesis and evolution.

The space also had an audio-visual installation co-curated with the electronic music duo - B.L.O.T. screening food diaries - video stories on food and eating from all over the world.
