Serendipity Arts Foundation has selected the two residents for the Serendipity Arts Residency from across a number of applications received through an open call. A large number of culinary arts practitioners, researchers and enthusiasts from across the country applied for Food Lab, Serendipity Arts Foundation’s residency on Culinary Arts.&nbsp;

The residency is a three-month programme based out of New Delhi, India. The two selected residents are Tansha Vohra and Sharanya Deepak.&nbsp;

Tansha’s project is set to revolve around opportunities that the future might present us with in the form of alternate proteins. In&nbsp;hindsight, it aims to address the looming food crisis, the world in all probability might experience in the near future. The project intends to create a digital exploration of entomophagy in India or the practice of eating insects.

Sharanya’s project ventures into food histories and reflects on the resourcefulness of&nbsp;people who have faced natural and man-made famines, employing ingenuity to source&nbsp;alternative food items. Her proposal aims to study each of these events as a part of food history, think of their relevance in the present-day, and approach the concept of hunger in a&nbsp;sensitive and reflective way, focussing on the agency and intelligence of those affected that&nbsp;rendered survival against all odds.

Starting from August 16 to November 15, &nbsp;the residency spans a three-month period.&nbsp;

The Food Lab will run as a hybrid residency model which is part virtual and part physical, if conditions permit, with an outcome being showcased at the Serendipity Arts&nbsp;Foundation’s office in New Delhi later in 2021.&nbsp;

Congratulating the selected residents of the new culinary arts residency, Smriti&nbsp;Rajgarhia, Director, Serendipity Arts Foundation &amp; Festival said, “We received interesting and&nbsp;well-conceived proposals for the residency from across the country, and we are happy with the&nbsp;final selection of the two residents for Food Lab. As a Foundation, we have always believed in creating platforms and facilitating dialogue and opportunities through the arts. With such initiatives, we hope to empower creative expressions from the South Asia region, in a recurring manner.”

Since the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic, the Foundation has been working on developing&nbsp;innovative outreach models that support the arts &amp; culture eco-system, empowering the artists with the tools and training to use and access digital platforms to showcase and reimagine their diverse and multi-disciplinary practices.

Along with these initiatives, the Foundation has been giving out grants to artists from the South Asian region, to sustain the arts production of the region.&nbsp;
