ART GALLERY X EXHIBITIONS

little RED CHAIRS: Art Gallery x Workshop is a collection of workshops and exhibitions that explore stories of food x people x spaces.
These activities focus on the power of food x storytelling to explore social practices around food, nutrition and cooking in Battambang. These food stories help to inform community-based health solutions while promoting the intergenerational exchange of Khmer culinary traditions.
Developed by The Fringe in collaboration with Battambang community members, little RED CHAIRS brings lived experience to the heart of the nutrition conversation.
Pull up a chair and discover stories of food x people x spaces.

Exhibition (Ex.) 2.5 is a collection of stories that explores food x people x spaces of Street 2.5, Battambang—reflections of daily life that resonate with the spirit of នឹកស្រៃ (nek-s’rai), “people of the countryside”.
The exhibition is part of little RED CHAIRS: Community Nutrition Project, which included early-stage development of the little RED CHAIRS Storytelling Working Group (SWG). Bringing together community members from diverse backgrounds, the SWG uses storytelling methodologies to explore meaning-making around food and nutrition in Cambodia.
These are those stories. -
