Dumplings are found in almost every culture. Their origin stories often speak of healing — of providing warmth in unbearable cold, of nourishment during scarcity, of care offered hand-to-hand. Over time they have come to hold a different but equally powerful role: comfort, nostalgia, and continuity. Families pass down recipes, folding techniques, and subtle variations that rarely make it onto paper. The knowledge lives instead in muscle memory — in the way fingers learn how much pressure to apply, how thin to roll the dough, how to seal an edge so it holds.

This participatory invitation asks you to pause and consider whether dumplings have a place in your own history. Perhaps they do — a family recipe, a holiday ritual, a scent that brings you back to a childhood kitchen. And if they do not, what might a dumpling look like if they did? What shape would comfort take? What folds would represent gathering, warmth, or hope?

Join me Sat Feb 28th 12-2pm in the gallery and we'll make some things together.

around the kitchen table: crafting connections

This exhibition explores making as a language — how care, memory, and connection are passed through our hands, often without words. Rooted in dumpling-making and shared kitchen rituals, the work reflects on the quiet, powerful ways we communicate through gesture, repetition, and touch.
