Gastrosophy, a new art exhibit exploring the art of good eating, is making high art more palatable.

Food isnt a new thing to anybody. Talking about food and making it art isnt a new aesthetic theory, said Olivia Chow, curator of Gastrosophy.

What I really hope is that the work in here could create new relationships for viewers to relate to their food and the time they spend with it.

Encouraging the viewer to think beyond flavour and examine how our relationship with food forms our identity the social and cultural aspects of food Gastrosophy brought together seven local artists who share their experiences and feelings towards food through mediums as varied as the ingredients that make up some of our favourite dishes.

Its all about the sensory experience, said Chow. [The mediums explore] how to activate the sensory.

Opening night at Jackson Power Electric Ltd., 9754 60 Ave., featured performance art with Chelsea Boos with Practical Magick; Of Kitchen Wizardry and a special performance where a family shared their culture by making wontons live at the opening reception.

Other installations included a chandelier sculpture by Mackenzy Albright and Rachelle Bowen, entitled Shake and Bake and an immersive room installation designed for sensory overload created by Robert Harpin called #foodporn.

Gastrosophy is the third in a series of curated exhibits created in partnership with The Works International Visual Arts Society and Jackson Power Electric Ltd. as a creative way of connecting local artists in need of gallery space and a community-minded company looking to put under-utilized office space to good use.

Im a big supporter of the arts, and not just the visual arts, but theatre, performing arts and music, said Laura Jackson, president of Jackson Power Electric Ltd. Its a part of our life, so I wanted to support it.

The series has found an unusual home at Jackson Power Electric Ltd.s location, where Jackson had unused office space on top of their warehouse.
