I was excited to read Rachel Beckman’s article in today’s Washington Post , Hot Off The Presses: A Pot Full Of Issues.” It’s about [tag]Carolina Mayorga[/tag]’s exciting performance piece last week at Transformer.

Mayorga was inspired to create the art installation, called “New Trends in South American Cuisine,” after hearing about people eating newspaper soup in Colombia, where she is from.

“It’s about poverty because people do that out of starvation,” Mayorga says. “It’s also playing with the idea of consumerism.”

If you missed it, you can visit Carolina’s website. The series is guest curated by our friend [tag]Niels Van Tomme[/tag], is called “E4: Station to Station” and continues through August at [tag]Transformer[/tag].
