Cheerio Dip

Eating is one of the most intimate things that we do as humans. This project was inspired by the idea that we have different eating habits when we're alone and when we are eating with others.

​

I've recreated an experience based on a childhood experience of eating cheerios and milk at my grandparents house. Back when I was younger, I associated cheerios with a moment in time that was thoughtful, slow, and enjoyable. I've elevated and recreated that moment for my current self. By looking at the piece, one can't tell exactly how I used to eat my cheerios, but the viewer may be reminded of their childhood and recreate their own special way of eating that donut shaped cereal.
