About this work
Description
This set of zines is creative output from a workshop held by Art In Hospital, and led by Beatrix Pang, with patients at Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Hong Kong, as part of Wellcome's international collaborative project Contagious Cities, September 2018-September 2019. The workshop participants discussed the history and personal struggles of epidemics in Hong Kong, and created homemade food recipes in the form of small bowls. They explored healthy eating and cooking to help them prepare for the next epidemic or recalled memories of how food has helped them overcome illness in the past.
