Watertanden is an exhibition about the experience of food. Does a strawberry taste the same on a picnic as it does in a perspiring porta potty? What does your grocery basket reveal about your wishes and desires? And how does the smell of food influence memories? The exhibition Watertanden (mouthwatering) explores the curious and creative side of food - bypassing, we promise, calorie counters, diet tips and poisonous antioxidants.

We need food to survive, but there's so much more to it than that. What defines an eating experience? Taste, surroundings, genes, company? How can we use food to comfort, manipulate, and form our identities? The exhibition is a food-based obstacle course, inviting you to experiment and taste.
Andreia, Renske, Karlijn
Andreia, Renske, and Karlijn spent three years investigating the importance of food. The more answers they found, the more questions were raised. They've taken stock and are presenting the results-so-far as Watertanden, a book and exhibition.
Karlijn Souren is a product- and food designer, Andreia Costa is a photographer and graphic designer, and Renske de Greef is a writer and nrc.next-columnist.

Wat verklapt mijn boodschappenmandje?
Eten is inderdaad zoveel meer dan enkel brandstof voor je lichaam. Ik ben dan ook heel erg benieuwd wat mijn boodschappenmandje over mij verklapt! Zeker een tentoonstelling die ik wil zien.
