plate 147. celebrates ingredients.

In the 21st century, the appreciation for good food made from quality sourced, creatively manipulated and precisely extracted ingredients has been slowly lost through food wastage, overconsumption of cheap goods and eating through the lens. Food is a social issue. The production of food has become a social norm that isn’t celebrated and cherished for its complexity and composure that it brings to the table. The human machines behind the plates know and follow ingredients that make sense for the palette - they are mechanical and complex performers that create an experience through the whole process of growing to serving.

plate 147. celebrates food as singular objects - as art created by the hidden faces behind the closed doors. The spaces at plate 147. confuse, challenge, celebrate, excite and entice the individual into a new perspective on ingredients. Each space is curated to celebrate the nature of food and the process of making, to immerse the individual into and elevated food experience.

Sydney’s landscape of current growing food trends provides a canvas for an innovation, creation and exploration food precinct. plate 147. provides a space for people to demonstrate the importance of local produce, quality ingredients and the role of food as a significant aspect in our everyday life that needs to be celebrated and cared for. The destructive and insatiable history of Goat Island renders this land a perfect topography for the future of food.
