Mixer - What you put is what you get, 2013 - installation (video, audio, print, object)

The project presents a subjective archive of recipe notebooks, put together into a personal collection of recipes and specific elements belonging to the culinary universe of women who reproduce and interpret a specific form of gastronomic material. The interest in this social phenomenon is focused on illustrating the form of information transmission – hand to hand, page to page, mediating a certain type of informal knowledge, where the recipe notebook represents a symbol of conservation of shared information and communicating between housewives, as an analog open source network. The approach of the personal archive is meant not as criticism, but as an implantation in this system of transmitting information, partially assuming the same means used for archiving the recipes in notebooks, but partially also inserting new elements in the informational network. The result is a new element perpetuating the network, where individual identity is diluted for the sake of content and the process generating it.
