Barndiva - Salon des Sens

Barndiva's Salon des Sens exhibition was quite a success during the opening reception this weekend. A big thank you to Studio Barndiva and Curator Maggie Spicer who organized quite a 'palatable' exhibition revolving around the food we eat.

As I flowed through the crowds, it was quite evident how art can influence our relationship to food. A buzz of excitement and conversations about food were aroused as people moved about the exhibition of food photography, paintings and installations.
