What is Taste by Wu Mali is running free at Esplanade’s Jendela visual arts space until 10 August 2026, giving visitors a quiet exhibition built around food, memory and migration.
The official page describes it as an expanding body of work that traces stories and memories encoded in food and food preparation through interviews and documentary film.
What The Exhibition Explores
The work focuses on the human geography of Cijin Island in Taiwan, following six residents as they recount family and personal experiences through gestures of food preparation.
That makes it a good fit for viewers interested in food culture beyond restaurants: how cooking, eating and remembering carry personal and collective histories.
Planning Notes
Jendela opens Monday to Friday from 11am to 8.30pm, and Saturday, Sunday and public holidays from 10am to 8.30pm. Admission is free, so it pairs easily with a show, dinner or a walk around the waterfront.
