The Conch Girl Project



In this socially engaged project that utilizes cooking to co-nurture the mutual care for strangers in New York City, Sidian Liu asks strangers to let her use their kitchens in solitude--in return, she cooks them a meal. The photos from each kitchen visit will later be printed large and wheat-pasted on the green construction boards on the New York City streets. The street publication is both a presentation and an open call that invites future collaboration. 

The following recipes document stories behind each kitchen visit.
