With Love, From Burma

This is a watercolour tribute to the theme ‘Care for Heritage’, celebrating the power of food in preserving identity. Featuring Khao Suey, a cherished Burmese dish, it represents the artist’s cultural roots, and a treasured family recipe passed across generations. Inspired by her diaspora journey from India to New Zealand, the artist highlights how food carries identity and connects us across time and place. This still life reminds us that heritage isn’t only in monuments or museums, it lives in kitchens, languages, phots and shared stories. Visitors are invited to reflect on their own joyful good memories and be inspired to explore and protect their culinary heritage as a vital thread in the fabric of family legacy
