FOOD PHREAKS!: Biodiversity of the Kitchen is an exhibition about the ways that taste, place, technology and food shape our planet and our lives.


The exhibition features ten years of recipes, menus, performances and food carts created by the Center for Genomic Gastronomy (CGG) including pieces such as Smog Tasting, Glowing Sushi and De-Extinction Deli.

Hosted by the Norwegian BioArt Arena (NOBA) and installed on the campus of VitenParken in Ås, this was the first solo show by CGG to be staged in Norway, assembling a decade of artistic research under one roof. From LOCI Food Lab to the Planetary Sculpture Supper Club, this exhibition traces a journey across the planet, led by an insatiable curiosity about the organisms and environments manipulated by human food cultures.

FOOD PHREAKS!: Biodiversity of the Kitchen by the Center for Genomic Gastronomy was hosted by The Norwegian BioArt Arena and exhibited at Vitenparken in Ås, Norway from September 24th — December 31, 2021.
