解說雪櫃:從食物貯存看生活
You Are What You Freeze: The Everyday Life of Storage

雪櫃幾乎是家庭必備的電器,裡面的乾坤你知道多少?民間博物館計劃樂施會關注綜緩檢討聯盟合作是次展覽,選擇不同社會及經濟背景的家庭,進行有關雪櫃的研究。雪櫃裡面的食物--無論是來源、食用的模式、或貯存的方法--以至外觀的裝飾,都是自我或家庭身份及生活方式的視覺呈現,自覺或不自覺地訴說生活的故事。觀眾將會透過這視覺歷程,在展覽中重新看社會上多元化的生活模式, 從食物的選擇和處理方式看到不同家庭的生活處境,希望能刺激參觀者多角度反思社會現況。

Community Museum Project, in collaboration with Oxfam Hong Kong and Reviewing CSSA Alliance for this exhibition, is conducting a research on the contents of refrigerators, across a selected economic and social spectrum of households in Hong Kong. Through what are stored inside, a refrigerator can become an expression of one’s identities -- the origins of its contents, the pattern of usage, the way food is stored, and even the ways the appliances are decorated, all become a visual manifestation of a person’s or a family’s lifestyle. The stories behind make-up statements of our residents’ identities constructed both self-consciously or un-self-consciously. Through our (visual) discoveries, the audience is prompted to pay attention to our diverse domestic lifestyles and hopefully lead to a critical analysis of the choice of food and the ways of food processing from the exhibition.
