I might have bitten off more than I can chew comes from an
ongoing dialogue between artists Natalia Janula and Joanna
Wierzbicka. Both of their work investigates bodily fragility and the
ambiguous, often obscure connection between domesticity and
technology, futurism, and decay.
The Generation & Display show is open invite for a unique ‘din-
ing’ experience featuring numerous culinary specialties. Regional
aspic (a humorous take on East European vegetable and meat
encased in jelly) , plexiglass sculptures, latex assemblages,
kinetic sculptures, edible units, kebab-like creatures, a cake with
a tongue, kinetic fingers, moulding squishy forms.
Janula and Wierzbicka are interested in the edible matter and
its ability to shape memories, rituals, communities which then
become mutually transformative relationships between food and
consumer. With a pinch of salt, they also explore food as poetic,
metaphorical, discursive, nutritional, and sculptural material.
