We’re sweet, we’re sour, we’re umami. Taste so indelibly baked into our senses that consumption cannot exist without it. Five tastes of the tongue taking a trip of three steps down the palate to provide our corporeal bodies with nourishment. And then, of course, taste extending outwards: onto the books we read, the clothes we wear, people we seek: our ever-shifting overwrought flimsily constructed identities, you know.

Tastes wax and wane according to the seasons, then circle back. As soon as one begins to consume, the trajectory of taste is marked. A canon of taste, with everything else sour, refused, too spicy, until we become ‘in vogue’. Make your way to that one seat at the table, but when you sit down, it becomes clear that the table has an ever-spinning lazy-susan, spinning faster and faster. You watch as the food flies off, mayonnaise already dripping down on your shirt.

LIMINAL presents TASTE, our fourth digital series of writing, art and more.

Taste has been edited by Cher Tan, Adalya Nash Hussein & Leah Jing McIntosh, with design by Anny Luo.

THE LIMINAL INTERIORS SERIES IS SUPPORTED BY THE CITY OF MELBOURNE ARTS GRANTS PROGRAM.
