FEAST - L. Song Wu Opening at Johansson Projects
Feast is structured like an Italian full-course meal, unfolding in stages that explore the eroticism, performance, and violence behind acts of eating and consumption. Each painting resembles a thumbnail for a mukbang video, marked by surreal excess, seductive abundance, and intimate spectacle. Food is arranged with deliberate absurdity, pulled from internet virality, childhood memory, and embodied fantasy, reflecting Wu’s cross-cultural experiences across the U.S., China, and Italy, three places with deeply distinct but overlapping food traditions, aesthetics, and anxieties.
The show will also be doubling as a food drive - please bring non-perishable foods if you are able! All donated food will go to Alameda County Community Food Bank.
